Also, similarity in name or other details with someone on the watch list might trigger more checks. I guess it makes sense; you don't want to naturalise a terrorist, criminal, etc... Fa...

Still waiting from 25th of June 2013. For some applications they are taking long. It probably a matter of luck whether you get a quick case worker or a slow less efficient one.
