August 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[D_Grendayzer]

how do you which IRCC office is handling your application?

 

[endor]

Anybody with Vancouver office has the similar impression that this office is processing very slowly now, compared to the offices from East Coast?

Considering all applicants in this tread, it's a hit or miss. Some have gotten Oath invite already, some are waiting for test complete, and some are waiting for test invite.


Chaotic as everything else involving IRCC...

Application of family of 2

Application date: August 20
AOR: Oct 10

My wife got the background greened and she received the invitation for the test.
Mine is not moving. Called IRCC, and they said it's under background check.

What does it mean and what should I do?

Thanks for your insight.

Does bad camera affects the test? I gave my test on my laptop but the camera quality and lighting was not that good. I’m a bit worried about it. Anyone had such experience?

then why my test is not updated and even fingerprint ? @engineeredbygod @Casablanca93

Did they ask for email of id?
They did ask me before the test gets completed
And had ghost update last oct 27
And on 31st the updates were reflected
BG (27th) and Fp has been received(26th)
Is the 31st update is also a sign there is another update coming?

Thanks for your insight.

I already told you before that I had the same issue... My husband changed to green, and ten days after, they requested my fingerprints.
The same happened when I applied to get permanent residence.
The way they check the background is through your name/last name. If someone with your exact same name committed a crime, they need your fingerprints to discard it's not you. It seems that someone with my name did commit a crime, LOL.

Everything (exception Citizenship Ceremony) was updated as "Completed" for myself and my wife today but for my kid only Prohibitions is marked as complete and everything else is in progress...any idea by when we should expect his Language, Physical presence, background, citizenship test to be completed...can I expect to receive oath invite soon ?

Once fingerprints are given, would I expect to see an update on Tracker? Or, just wait for BG to be completed? Thanks!

Yes

how do you which IRCC office is handling your application?

You can tell by the email from which you received the test invite.

Or GCMS notes....
