Hi,

Anybody who applied at Surrey, BC in Feb 2012 or close wants to share status?

Here is mine:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on February 9, 2012.

We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on February 9, 2012. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

We started processing your application on October 3, 2012.

Hi Maisa,

Sorry to hear that you had RQ, but it could be short.

Can you please share more detail (the date to be transferred to the Surrey office)?

Thanks.

Hello,
I have no idea about when our file was transferred but I assume it was same time as our application went into "in process" we were asked to send RQ documents to Surrey office so I know that our file is there now.

Good luck,
Maisa

My timeline:

Received - August 30, 2012
Booklet - August 30, 2012
Processed - December 28, 2012
Transferred to Surrey office - June 13, 2013
No RQ, family application

From what I've read here, it usually takes 7-8 months from the transfer to receive invitation to take the citizenship test.
