My time line has been stuck like this in about a year and seven months now. I was told before that the wait time for RQ was 30 months- now it is 48 months. I still don't understand how some people need to have to fill out a RQ form while some don't. I have known A LOT of people who took the citizenship test after I did and they already got their Canadian Citizenship. The people I speak to on the call centre aren't really helping- as they do not know what the status is as well.

Sorry for the rant!
