March 2020 - Citizenship Applicants

[AnnTaylor]

Those still waiting from early march. Did you all send the package through Canada Post or through a Courier? Trying to figure it out if there is a trend if it is Canada post or it is completely random.

Canada post tracking service

I'm gonna give it until the end of September
But just in case, how do we reach out to IRCC to follow up on this?

I agree! Who do we contact because this is ridiculous.

I agree, this is more than ridiculous. In this age of data science and AI, government takes 6+ months to acknowledge an application made by public!!

When we look at the Jan and Feb threads, after completing around 45 to 50%, they moved to next month. Then they had ro wait for slow-poke to complete the previous month to move particular month. Feb had no update for 2 to 3 weeks, where as Jan and March were moving. If they continue to process Aprial, then march should wait untill Feb to complete. Hope more March applications will be processed before moving to April.

Yes that is true. From the looks of it, they are now doing end of March. Guess they will move to April without finishing March as they did for February and even January. There is nothing we can do but to play their waiting game.

Just noticed none of the Feb/March applicants has IP (except one for March, probably that's the one with urgent case). Seems it's not happening until end of Oct or so?

If they do it starting Oct that would be greatttt...

I think they will clean up all the AORs first before any IP, as it makes more sense since these are done in batch stages one after the other.

How do we know if application got returned if you changed address after submitting it. My application was recieved on 16 March and no AOR yet so I am just concerned

Hi all,
Just found this thread, but you can add me to the list:

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on March 25, 2020.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on August 21, 2020.
3. We started processing your application on September 2, 2020.

Application is for just me (single), physical presence was about 10 days over the minimum. I'm in Toronto.

Quite frustrated that it's taking so long since I requested expedited processing for employment-related reasons. It seems that request was ignored.
