I was just browsing through the CIC website and happen to look at list and profiles or current CJ's , i think there were about 26 in all......imagine with over 200,000 apps pending and assuming they work 200 days a year 8 hours a day ........it comes to about 5 apps per hour/CJ....
 
Really among the interviews , specific complex appliction evaluations and cermonies hats of to them how they do what they do .....
 
we need more CJ's if the process has to move faster.....nothing will happen till the bottleneck is at the very end of the process is removed.....

hi SK
I know that those who took their exam and are still waiting, it's because there is no CJ in their city. Ottawa is among those. I took my exam on September 19, It went well, but till now, no invitation for the Oath Ceremony, I went to CIC office where I took the exam, I was told that (no CJ in the area) so it can take 7 to 8 month.

Well knowing that the Honorable PM is cutting position I think it will take long time to fill the gap.

BTW, can you please share the link of the info

Conservitive will not get my vote for sure once I become citizen. Jason Kenney is the worst in history.
