Thanks PMM and Siouxie! That's useful to know. Given his ceremony was never scheduled, I'm guessing it'll be awhile longer before they get around to him.

Yeah exactly, I have checked but to no avail.

That's ok. If it's usually 3 months and then plus Covid time, I'll wait it out. I was told locally it's usually around 2 months, so I thought I'd enquire as it's been over that now.

Thanks everyone.

We're 10 months in from when we sent our application. It's a bit like watching paint dry now... so I spend as little time thinking about it as I can and at some point we will be positively surprised.

Yeah, I keep forgetting that I applied for it to be honest. But I want to make sure that my $630 was 'well spent' and it gets me what I want. I hope you hear something soon, it does seem like you've been waiting for a while to hear the next update.

For now I'll just lay back and think of England...as they say

Mr Schnooks will be a Canadian citizen as of Thursday around 8:30am. He got an email last week to do a Zoom oath.

What crazy times! But happy to finally have the finish line in sight!!

Congrats! I'm still chasing my MP to put pressure on IRCC to resume testing. Going to be a long road I feel.

Looks like they are restarting some in-person appointments in Vancouver as an experiment.

Thanks Great news!, we asked for our February test to be rescheduled as we were in Arizona and then Boom the world stoped.

Thats great news. Think we’ll be in limbo forever. 😱

I submitted my application in October 2019. they started processing in Jan 2020...still nothing? Is this just a normal COVID side effect?

Not really I applied when COVID kicked in about March (can’t remember excact date.) got a new black passport back in three months.
with tracking etc.
my passport expired in may ,wasn’t going anywhere anyway ,
but I paid 80 bucks for special delivery and a home made photo shot with a white blanket background.
as photographer places where shut.
anyway the uk government kept in touch here and there.
havent used it since lol,
just be patient

The thread is about Canadian Citizenship Applications - not UK Citizenship or passports.. would you like this moved to another thread? (let us know which thread you meant to post to)

Just wondering if there is anyone with recent AOR? I’ve just gone onto the website and their current AOR status shows they’re currently working on sending AOR for applications received in week of December 31st 2020. They received my application on September 14th 2020

Edit: nevermind, just selected “AOR received” entered my details and it shows my mailing address as my UK address... odd. Anyways, application was started being processed as of March 1st

I have waited for 15 months and wrote my citizenship test 2 weeks ago.
It is generally upto 3 months after the test on CIC website.
Do you know how long to wait after successful test

DandNHill

I wrote the test on Feb 19th. No news yet. Hoping maybe to hear something in April...or May...or June...
