IRCC’s most recent processing period statistics were issued on August 10, 2026, and the headline figure is impossible to disregard.
Citizenship certificate processing has increased by another six months in a single reporting period, reaching 25 months, while the queue has grown to around 121,800 people, with an additional 22,300 applicants.
That statistic was only three months in March 2026, indicating that this category has added almost 22 months of processing time in barely five months.
