Hello folk, did anyone receive a Test Request?

Nothing so far. My application was last updated the day after I got my AOR according to the tracker.

And I'm not sure if there would be a difference in terms of test invites timeline between paper-based and online applicants.

As far as I can see from the Excel sheet, paper based applications are going faster than online ones. Most of the paper applications are family applications. I did not see many single applicants go got their BG check completed or invited for the test.

This is what I notice, that the paper based family based applications are the ones that are moving quickly.

My application was last updated when I received my AOR.

I will be sending out my wife and 2 kids application this week. I am almost regretting sending mine 3 months earlier, Lol.

Hello everyone! I have a quick question! Originally I first submitted my citizenship application on Feb 21, 2022 via internet. However, I got an email from IRCC on March 21, 2022 saying that there was missing information - they didn't specific what was missing. But we guessed that it is something related to the physical presence calculator ( as I have stayed in Canada for 1,095 days over 5 years, so I didn't specify where I was before the first day of the 1,095 counter within the 5 years ) Therefore we suspected that it was bounced back because of this reason.

I resubmitted it right away on March 21, 2022. However, up until now (2 months from the 2nd attempt), there is no AOR received. Should I re-submit the whole application again?

Hello everyone,
I really need help!
I came in Canada in June 2018 as visitor visa and I stayed 18 months as visitor with OWP (Spousal sponsorship) before I became Pr in January 2020.
I used the calculator and with 1/2 day before becoming Pr made I have 9 months before Pr. Totally I have stayed in Canada for more than 1095 days.
The calculator said I meet the requirements as well. I submitted my application and it was return thr first time due to IRCC not being able to confirm my stay in Canada before PR. I resubmitted my application with supporting documents as my SIN when I was a visitor, my flight ticket, my tax file before Pr, my Owp… and they returned my application again for the same reason.
am I the problem that I think 1 day spending in Canada as visitor is counted for 1/2 day? Or any reason why they keep returning my application?
I have a hard time to contact them due to their phone centre is always busy. I dont even have yet a client number so I cant contact them by webform.
What should I do in my case? Can anyone give me an idea please?

Do you use the physical calculator to count your physucal presence?

 

[Baobaochlos]

Do you use the physical calculator to count your physucal presence?

Yes I did and the calculator said I meet the physical presence!!

 

[smash1984]

Yes I did and the calculator said I meet the physical presence!!

Do you have rent or any other proof of stay like credit card payments etc to prove you were here?

Maybe send them those?

Did you send an explanation letter the second time you submit your files?

I sent them my temporary SIN document before becoming PR, my Open work permit before PR, my flight ticket to Canada, my tax return from CRA in 2018, 2019, 2020.
I think if I submit it again, I would send them my marriage certificate which took place in Canada before I became PR.
But I just can’t understand how come they dont have any documents for my entry to Canada.
I really have no idea!
They returned it twice, I am just frustrated
