November 2020 - Citizenship Application

[novascotia27]

Anyone has received any test invite from Calgary office ?

It looks like some June 2020 applicants were the last folks to receive test invites. The office appear to be dead unfortunately..

Hi,
Can someone share a link to applying for GCMS notes. There must have been a post in the past with a detailed breakdown on how to apply and what supporting documents to include for your request. I'm just trying to figure out which office my citizenship application is being processed at.

So how long does it take for the fingerprints status to be reflected in application status?

i am waiting as well. Online tracker still showing waiting for fingerprints but timeline say received on same day fingerprint collection day.

Hello All,
Did anyone from Vancouver get a test invite? For normal processing. No changes on my status since Apr 23

Couldn't find much applicants from Niagara region to predict processing time, it seems its going slowly there.

I applied in Kitchener but my test invite came from the Niagara office.

Fingerprint request received last week, processing from UK.

I can't gain access to the tracker at the moment is anyone experiencing same issue?

Application via Ottawa office.

I have received the request for passport pages. I have a small problem. One travel stamp is not very visible. Did anyone face similar challenge? They have requested to translate everything that is not in English. I can only read ABR that means APR(April). And do you know where to get this translated? Thanks for help. All the best, everyone!

This is where we miss RajKamalMohanram's prompt response - He is out on his Citizenship ceremony today and hope it goes fine.

I browsed the threads and see the below post

I got all my non English passport stamps translated. Better safe than sorry I guess. The all Arabic stamp on entry to Dubai turned out to be a 96 hour transit visa.

For anybody who's looking for translations I can recommend Docsbase (www.docsbase.ca) This was the 2nd time I used them. Best price in town and unbelievable turn around time, got mine in less then 24hrs

Thanks @OllySyd for your help. I will go through this thread and keep posted if I face any challenges.

How do we know that IRCC has received the fingerprints?

Yup! That's the website I've used and it was done super quick and it wasn't expensive

People who have completed their test and waiting for their oath date can forget about getting it this year. September applicants who took their test in June 2021 are now getting their oath ceremonies scheduled in January 2022.

Thanks. I went for the Certified translations. Hope it comes with a Certificate along with translations( i.e. just a one word translation ).

In my original application, I did include all passport pages with visas and stamps assuming IRCC doesn't require to validate blank pages . I wish, I should have added blank pages at that time in my application. It feels like every step delays the process by 3-4 weeks.
