September 2022 - Citizenship Applicants

[rush171]

I have a question.
When i submitted my application I was requested to send explanation of a gap between my passports (I had no passport for two weeks). I sent the email and they received it (have the proof on my email files), but I still get a message when I login to the tracker that says "We're waiting for you". Will this change when they finally take a look at that part of the process? or should I re-submit the information just in case? I don't want my application to get delayed in processing due to this.

has anyone had the same issue?

They typically take 5-7 business days to attach an email or document response to your case. And A LOT of times, even though they receive the response, the status is never updated online and it continues to say waiting on you. My whole process is complete, but the tracker was never updated. One way for you to confirm would be to call the customer center and ask if the response was attached to your file.

Anyone from the MTL office getting any updates? thanks in advance. (I am assuming my office is MTL since the test invitation letter had MTL in it)

ooh congrats, so is it appearing first on tracker that oath in progress and assigning dates, then after many days you got the email? what's the gap between them?

Anyone receive any recent updates from the Sydney office? My citizenship test was marked completed on Jan 31st and haven't had any updates since... Located in Vancouver if that's useful info.

Greatly varies, some get it a week before, others get it weeks ahead. For some email comes before it updates the date on the tracker.

The spreadsheet should give you an idea of the days between oath letter date and oath ceremony date.

I mean between tracker update and getting the email
Not between oath mail and oath ceremony?
Did you have tracker update for oath and oath mail in same day? Or different? Which one was first?

I completed my oath today, I am glad this process took exactly 6 months from the moment it arrived to their office, which was a day before the Hurricane that hit them and delayed many of our AORS.
Thank you to all who answered my questions during these past months, if any one has any questions about the oath, feel free to message me anytime. Hoping all of your applications have a speedy process.

Congratulations

I got my oath invite email a week after tracker update, my spouse however took more than two weeks. We applied together so it's very random.
