Hey the tracker is not letting me add my info in it. Can anyone help please?

There are only a select few people (maybe just one?) who have access-- you will have to wait for them to update the tracker sheet.

You can request for access if you interested in updating the sheet. It's not one but @shiremag does most of the hard work. He would really appreciate having more helping hands.

Hello everyone, are we suppose to link the application to our GC key account? If yes I can’t is not recognizing my Application #

Unfortunately the Citizenship application is not in the list of applications that can be linked: Link an application to your IRCC secure account - Canada.ca

It would be too logical to have everything in one place

I got aor today and I can't create an account either. Doesnt recognize my UCI.

Not sure, if you have got the response already. I got my AOR earlier, However, I was not able to create a tracker account until I received an email from immigration stating, " Follow the progress..." with a link to the application tracker in the body of the email. Wait until that email to create an account.

I got another email saying how to check citizenship application status and create citizenship tracker account.
It say your application is in our system.
But links attached with emails are not working.
And still I am not able to create tracker account with UCI and Application no.

Yes, if you have received the email saying "Follow the progress .." it means your application is "In Progress" status. The link on the email body doesn't work since it is referring to old website for tracking. You should use https://tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/register for registering and then tracking your application. Make sure you do not put "-" when entering the UCI number and use the application number from the AOR PDF that you have received over email.

Was able to register today. Guess it was taking sometime for it to be updated in their records.

I also know others applied online sent pages shows the identity and stamps only and went through ‍

I received the email today asking me to create the tracker. Of course link isn’t working, but I was able to create the account 3 days before receiving the email.

AORs are being delivered quite efficiently for online applicants. I see some people got it in less than 2 weeks. I really hope they keep the momentum going and finalize all applications fast.
