Many people have to wait many many month to get I-140 etc. and this is irrespective of nationality. Also, for the US passport one has to pay additional fee to get it in UP. Thats beside your point. The main point was to have a premium processing fee. It's not going to hurt the applicant and will definitely help the IRCC and all of us.
Hi everyone, if you're a citizenship applicant from Alberta would you like to join this telegraph channel:
https://t.me/citizenshipyyc
Applicants from everywhere are welcome by the way. I've been waiting for a long time, and it's really difficult. I thought in this channel we could talk about our experience, timeline, and help each other out. If you like the idea please join and share with others that you think might find this helpful. Thank you.

I haven't had any updates since my test in July. No response to urgent processing either. Calgary office is too slow. What's your timelines/ status?

My UP request was approved. I have been given a test window starting from dec 3.
What will be the gap between test date and citizenship oath? I am out of country between for 10 days in december. So thinking should i do test on 3rd or on 20th after returnign from trip. I am concerned if they give me oath date while i am out of country for 10 days.

Did they send you an email to let you know it was approved? How would one know if their UP was approved? I submitted mine a month ago, got a couple of generic responses shortly after, but there have been no updates on my file whatsoever. Thanks
I was able to pick up the certificate exactly one hour after the oath was done.
Still in progress on the tracker so I guess it takes time to update.
Applied in July 2019
Invited for the test in May 2021 but cancelled by IRCC
Asked for urgent processing in July 2021
Invited for the test in Sep 2021 and passed
Whoever invited me to write and marked the test as completed did not bother reading my request...
Nobody looked at my urgent processing request until I spoke with a level 3 call centre agent in late October 2021
Got a call from an IRCC processing agent a day later
Had an interview 2 days later
And invited for an oath a week later
I was looking forward to traveling to see an unwell family member but with the new variant I don't know if I can fly next week.

May I know What is your reason for urgent processing? Someone said it took two month for approval,how it could be an urgent
I needed to travel because of death or serious illness in the family and I could not get a passport. They did ask if I can apply for one of the travel documents from Passport Canada. Passport Canada is not currently issuing them unless it's an emergency and I think the agent concluded that would take longer than approving my urgent request. Another reason I did not want to even apply for was, I need to mail the PR card to Passport Canada and it can take several weeks to get it back. Meanwhile if I am invited for the test and/or oath, I can't continue with my citizenship application because I do not have the PR card with me.
I walked to there and picked it up an hour after the virtual ceremony was over

Montreal office but honestly, if you are dealing with one of the big IRCC offices, there will be some people working in person and printing the citizenship certificates. Therefore it should be theoretically possible to pick it up in person. It is up to you to convince them. I am not sure if all IRCC offices are printing certificates though
