FingerPrint Request : Mar 12th 2021
That's unfortunate :( I've updated the sheet with the information - how did they inform you of this? Via e-mail?

Hey Sid,
They started processing my application on March 10.

I’m pretty happy with the movement of my application I was expecting it to take longer but sending app on October 28, 2020 > AOR Jan 28 > In Process March 10, 2021 is encouraging.

With previous data, at what stage in the entire process do applications get sent back if info is missing, lacking, etc.? Does it most likely get returned before or after receiving an “AOR”, “in process”, etc,? Just curious.

Thanks!

Miguel
Hey Miguel,

Thanks for the info! I've updated the sheet.

Yes, I agree - for now, the progress has been pretty good, but considering we're now moving towards the real chokepoint for all the applications so far, I expect progress to be slowed dramatically after this stage until there is clear line of sight for mass testing and oath-taking.

As for your other question - typically applications are returned prior to the issuance of AOR. Having said that, they _could_ request additional documents as needed at any point of the process (such as spiderman got with his Fingerprint requests) until you're actually ready to take the oath (the last marker for document taking IIRC, was the officer asking for an interview if they felt it was necessary after conducting your test). This is just going by what I've learned so far, so if there are any corrections to this, pretty sure someone will correct me on this.

In progress since March 11.
Also heads up, please update my location to Vancouver.
Updated, congrats on your progress (and your move!) :) Vancouver must be nice.

Hey Happy, welcome to the forums - I've added you to the October 2020 tab because your application was delivered in October, not November and this thread is for folks whose applications were delivered in November.

I'd recommend you provide updates in the October 2020 thread instead - click here to see the October 2020 thread. :)
