I’ve just sent off the paperwork to renew Bean’s English passport and that got me thinking about the paperwork to register him as a Canadian citizen, which never got sent off for various reasons. Looking at the website now:
Processing of routine applications for Canadian citizenship currently takes up to 12 to 15 months. The initial processing takes place at the Canadian High Commission. Original documentation submitted with an application is returned to the applicant after the initial processing in London (6 to 8 weeks). The application is then forwarded to the Registrar of Canadian Citizenship in Sydney, Nova Scotia. Forward planning is strongly recommended as processing can sometimes take as long as two years
.
Thanks, Harper.
