Vancouver is generally a slow center. No need to dishearten, this is all part of the process. It will come in time. All those guys/gals who got their citizen ship in 6 months do not know the relief 9 months, 12 months people feel.

Citizenship is like a mango, yes it is still a mango at 6 months, but at 9-12 months is red/yellow, perfectly ripe and dripping with sweetness. The one who ate at 6 month is happy but he will never taste the pulpy goodness time brings.
Patience my child... a sweet soul fulfilling perfectly rip mango awaits you.
