Hello arch
Have you tried to call the call center yet? This is odd...more than 2 months since "in process", i would start by calling the center then proceed from there..Best wishes

Hey guys - I had my test on Nov 8th. Cleared it. In the interview, she asked me to send in all my passport stamps with an attested translation (I have a lot of passport stamps that are not in English or French). Don't know what that means or how long it will slow things down for me. She clearly wasn't convinced of me having spent the required days in Canada, despite me explaining that I have a full time job since 4-5 years etc. Anybody else been in a similar situation? How long does it end up slowing the process down? Thanks

Travel plans will not be accepted for urgent processing. You would need to be able to show that you loose out on a job for example if you are not a citizen.

Thanks for the info.

This was my problem too. Also, I lost my passport. I have no idea how long it will take to be honest. I am wondering the samething.

Any ideas on how long it takes CBSA to send a travel history report to CIC?

Hi tinam,

From other posts that I've read on this forum, it could be approx 30 days.

Hopefully yours get sent sooner than that!

Hi,

I don't think it should hold up your process for long at all, as long as you get those stamps translated and send them in right away. The person handling your file just needs to verify entry and exit dates and with your stamps not in English or French (or accompanied with official translations) they can't "officially" do that.

Hi All,

Just wanted to update here, had my test this morning in Mississauga, easier than I expected. Interview was pretty straightforward too, I guess she was testing my English by checking my documents and asking simple questions. Now I am waiting my oath invitation!! I can say , that I truly enjoyed studying about this country.

Best wishes to all.

All in all this was pleasant 5 y journey
