March 2020 - Citizenship Applicants

[EUK]

Anyone has the answer?

30 mins less - time for taking the test.

Does anyone know over 55+ age who does not need to go through the language test, is the processing time is faster? I heard they still need to go through interview with immigration officer? What could be the processing time?

Even though you dont need to give test, but i saw posts on having the officer completing interview. So it would take the same time as they are inviting for test and interview for others on the same day - for you on that day it would be just interview. So thinking that you would end up waiting same time.
But only if they start using online interview then your wait time will cut short and could see a significant improvement. So for now wait for cic's decision on conducting tests/interview online or not.

Are you certain of missing that box ? I missed the same question, that’s why I am asking

Whether someone misses or not, it wont help you as rarely some officer might have also missed it. So you cant expect the incomplete application will get through 100% without any problem just because one member's AOR came through(that too that member did not confirm that he/she did a mistake as he/she was just guessing that he/she would have done mistake).
Good luck.

Initially submitted app in Jan. Was returned. Resubmitted the app in March.... received on March 2. Still waiting for AOR. Scared to open my mailbox.

After 24 hours of receiving my AOR, I can see the status in ECAS.
It shows my new home address and nothing mentioned about the mailing address which is correct as I never opted for a separate mailing address.
Now a fresh start for another waiting period and hope they will start the tests soon.

CIC has become very very slow in issuing AORs
