Proof of Citizenship Timelines

Citizenship
1

Hi All

I got my Canadian Citizenship in 1977 but my date of birth was wrong. I kept trying getting my birth certificate from India with the correct date of birth and finally was successful in getting my birth certificate with correct DOB in 2011 and then I applied for correction of DOB to CIC in dec, 2011.

I got a letter from CIC in March 2012 stating that my application has been sent to Program Suppport Unit and my application will be delayed. I contacted the cic call centre and were told to wait for two years before they can send an inquiry.

In March 2014 I contacted CIC call centre again and this time they sent an inquiry, but so far there has been no response from them.

Any helpful response is much appreciated.

Thanks
