June 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[m@nty]

I also live in Ottawa. Had my background completed on July 26th. No word on the test yet, although others with similar AOR and background complete dates as me have either gotten the test invite or taken it. Not sure if I am assigned to Ottawa but I am guessing I probably am. AOR to background complete was super fast at 8 days though.

other than test request everything else has been completed? language, time spend and all that stuff? as for me only background check says complete and everything else is in process mode

My BG completed on July 21st. I also live in Ottawa. I've just read that it takes an average of 3 months for Ottawa office to send test invite after BG completed. So guess we're in for a long wait. It's so frustrating when you see other applications being processed in a timely manner and yours is stalling.

I saw a lot of entries for test interview date in the tracker. Can anyone tell me what that is? Do we get a test interview request as well?

do you know when did Language /Physical Presence /Prohibition changed to In Progress? was it the same day when you logged into portal?

what about background ? is not started or in progress.

Since I didn't send the application myself (ie I did it through a rep,) I will have to double check the tracker.

Edit: So I just check and the background verification is also in process. There are no other dates than the AOR date. But I saw that the page was updated on August 2nd. I assume that was the background verifications update.

I also had that experience. I wonder why that is.

Hi I got an email with my AOR as attached on 27july, but it does not reflect on my online application. It’s been 8days now. Is this normal?

The application portal does not get updated.

All other items are in progress. Although I've seen plenty of others get moved to the test stage without these being complete. So fingers crossed.
