June 2020 - Citizenship Application

[rajkamalmohanram]

@rajkamalmohanram is it possible to add dropdown filters to the table for example to the location? This way people can easily see the progress of others compared to the same city when filtered and non filtered for all people.

I think you'll have to contact the admins of the sheet for that at cacitizenship@gmail.com . I don't seem to have access to do that.

You can add temporary filters. Just select the whole row (row 3), then Data > Filter views > Create new temporary filter view. And then you can filter by location

Yup. AFAIK, those filters would only be visible to the person adding them, no? Only the admins would be able to add permanent filters I guess.

Right, they would only be visible for the person using them. Not a bad idea for the admin to add a permanent filter.

Saw this on my online account. Why is mine not showing the three week window period?

Guys heads up. Looks like someone just got an in-person test.

Look at this post. There is no test window and the words "online test" is not seen on their status update. They've given the applicant a single date (June 7) to attend the test. The OP still hasn't received an email.

We're still NOT SURE if this is an in-person test but be sure to check that thread when the OP responds once s/he receives the test invitation in the email.

UPDATE: This could just be IRCC modifying the process to allow only 1 day for online tests instead of the 21 day window. We won't know until the OP gets back to us once s/he received an email invite.

Doesn't make any sense why they can't resume in person test now. If this is confirmed to be in person then maybe things will speed up in near future.

Yup, that's what I'm thinking. If they do both in-person AND online tests together, there is a good chance to decrease the backlog sooner.

Let's hope OP gets back with more details and in the other hand if they want to resume in person test and keep the online running, I believe they will ask candidates to choose no?

It could be an online test with a single date and no time (24 hours to take the test). We don't know. We'll have to wait for the OP to get an email update.
