January 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[Banana woman]

probably a silly question, but is ECAS only available to paper applications? when I try to check it, it doesn't retrieve any info.. my application is online. (I can check the tracker tho)

Yes, it only provide updates to paper applicants

Yeah, it's paper only (and kind of useless now that everyone can access the tracker.)

Just received passport(s) request!
Do I need to translate the stamps? I have stamps from the Czech Republic, Kazakhstan, China, Russia, Mexico etc?

For example:

Quick question, when you got this request from cic what is only on your email. Or you did see this on your online portal application history section as well?

Hello, do you receive email from IRCC with information to download e-certificate for citizenship before tracker updates with oath date?
do you get another email with oath date? Thanks.

It was just an email from IRCC (Vancouver office.) Nothing on the portal.

Strange! Usually kinda request asked by interview or update in the tracker as send us additional documents, it looks like your officer just want to do a short cut to accelerate the process of your file. Nice Vancouver officer

Really? I hope you are right, mat!

@shiremag, does your tracker reflect anything at the passport request? Like "Waiting on you" or something?

Yeah I had the same thing too, but nothing on the portal LPP updated May 19 waiting for oath. Could you mean maybe they are working on the oath ?

 

[Dr. Walden]

Yes! Same for me! No "Waiting for you". I don't think there is anything reflected on tracker when they ask for passport(s)

Hey Rosa1234, thanks for sharing. What is your timeline? I wonder how long does it take from passport request to any further update? Some people see their LPP cleared in 2-3 days after they send their passport(s). How long it it take you?

I have 3 examples of applicants requested the passport by interview and send us additional documents, every officer has his/her own way to process this
