Hi!

Please include my entry to the Jan 2023 sheet:
Type: Online application

Location: Vancouver

Physical Presence Days:1410

Application: Single

Application sent: Dec 21,2022

Delivered: Dec 21, 2022

AOR: Jan 11, 2023

Background verification completed: Feb 23, 2023

Scheduled to take a citizenship test: March 6, 2023

Citizenship test status updated to completed: March 30, 2023

Nothing but 2 ghost updates since then. I have requested note some my applications thought IRCC on Jan 1, 2024.

My partner and I got engaged in the meantime and would really like to tie the knot but I'm afraid it might make my application complex and take even longer. I really need to visit my family back home who I haven't seen in 3 years and it's just so heartbreaking to wait for so long while other people get it so fast :(

Congrats! Did you receive e-certificate instructions before oath invite? How long were you waiting between e-certificate instructions and knowing your oath date? Thanks!

Thanks! Wow, that's a very quick turnaround between oath ceremony email and the ceremony itself. I just received my e-cert instructions and currently outside Canada so I'm trying to figure out my return!

you can download from the same id, no issues and even for creating an account if you didn't get the email or invite code you can go ahead and create an account using any email id

Get invite code from here : https://ircc.canada.ca/visit-visiter/en/get-account-ircc-portal

Create account here: https://portal-portail.apps.cic.gc.ca/signup?lang=en

I've created the account. When I click the download e-certificate it asks for UCI, App number and DoB. Seems, just one account for the family should suffice.
