Re: CIC Citizenship timelines
So after checking online and no other updates regarding file. I had a nice surprise in the post today. My notice to attend for the test on 24 Apr 14 and if successful, take the oath on the 26 Apr 14.
Aside from the error on my part of having not sent my sons school transcripts, it took 12 months, pretty damn fast. Would probably have been sooner had I not messed up.

I just took the oath today in Vancouver - very happy to be a brand new Canadian citizen, 2 years after applying!

Re: CIC Citizenship timelines
I just received a request for fingerprints. Which is faster, going direct to an RCMP detachment or going to one of the agencies?

Fingerprints done today. $52.50, done on the spot at Commissionaires. No appointment needed and there was no queue in my case. They said that a lot of people had received fingerprint request letters on 26th March 2014.
