Mississauga Citizenship Applicants

Sauga is competing with snails on how slow things can move.

Oh my, I assumed that Mississauga was going to be one of the fastest offices in Canada. Guess I was wrong...

It is not the worst office in Canada though. I mean, given recent activity, it might be in top 5 (in Canada), I'd say. Mississauga process very large number of applications compared to other offices AFAIK because Mississauga office handles quite a few postal codes in the GTA and given the number of applications, I guess they are doing pretty okay.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well, should be in top 5 because they are used to processing large numbers and meeting their turn around time benchmarks with that volume.

Well, looking at your timeline you should be fine putting Mississauga office in Top 5

I will have trouble pitching them for any Top Spots considering I am a September 2019 applicant still waiting to see light at the end of this tunnel.

And add to that unpredictability of their processing, it’s even worse (and that’s not unique to Sauga office - that’s pan IRCC). All such processes should follow a First-in-First-out queueing model, here that’s the least of what IRCC follows. It’s all randomized, How can anyone reasonably justify that.

But at this point, heck, I just hope this process completes for me.

Well, yeah, maybe.

I hope you see some progress on your application real soon. All the very best!

I think @rajkamalmohanram application was under Urgent processing and hence got scheduled to an earlier timeframe... the rest of Sauga applications are just on the 401 expressway during weekday evenings..

Well, yeah, maybe.

I hope you see some progress on your application real soon. All the very best!

Thanks for the good wishes. We need loads of that

Congrats! I think this timeline also varies. For some, it takes weeks and for some, only a few days.
