October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

[Drv]

It depends on the processing center. Some are faster than others. IRCC indicates processing time for grant of citizenship applications is 12 months (as of now). If after 12 months, you're not a citizen, then you can start worrying a bit.

BTW, you can order GCMS notes on your file to get some idea what checks etc have been completed so far. Takes atleast 31 days to receive them.

Where to order GCMS notes ?

Criminality, eligibility (to make sure you satisfy the physical presence), background, knowledge about Canada, and interview.

Background check is very involved. You can read more about it in the following post:

Use search button top right and search for citizenship check keywords.

Hi All,

I have a question if someone can help me. I live in Calgary and soon i am going to move to Windsor Ontario. March 5th is my Test Date so i will be giving the test in Calgary but after the test and before the Oath Ceremony can i change my address? I will be changing province so i don't know how it will affect the process. Should i come back for just Oath ceremony in Calgary to avoid delays or should i notify them of address and province change?

If they ask you !!!! You will have to do it .. since RCMP complete a check of fingerprint the results are destroyed by the privacy act only federal employee and service policeman record stays for 90 days afte have to redo
