May 2022 - Citizenship Applications

I waited 4-5 days for the result to show up on the tracker. Hope this helps!

Thank you very much for the reply. I shall keep my eyes on it

Just did my test online. Could anyone please tell me how long after I would see the final result on the tracker?

It depends. Mine changed to 'completed' after 8days.

Hi, I had applied for my citizenship in May 26, 2022 and my update is only the citizenship test passed. I'm confused why there is such a big delay on my application?

My test was completed end of November and I've had no progress... some of us are unlucky.

Since your Background check is still in process, either you are stuck in Criminality check (RCMP is responsible) or Security check (CSIS is responsible)... Once, these agencies complete their checks, your BG will turn to complete. The best way to find out where your application is stuck is 1. Call IRCC and ask if you are stuck in Criminality or Security or 2. Order GCMS notes from CBSA and you should get them in 30 days

thank you for this information! This makes sense most likely I'm stuck there and quite possibly Security Check

Sorry to ask but do you have the IRCC number and extension to inquire on this? Do you think ordering GCMS will be better as my application may get some traction and progresses from being idle for so long?

+1 888-242-2100

Calling is faster to find out... You can request GCMS, however, expediting security and criminality checks are rarely possible

thank you will call for now and order GCMS later then. Thanks again!

My PR expires in august this year and I was hoping to have the passport by then but seems like I should apply for my PR renewal then?

In my experience, i have found the 'calling part' to IRCC, a fruitless effort. They never seem to tell you more than what is on the tracker. The few times I've called them, they just say "your application is still in progress". But when you fill the webform, you get a response in about 2wks with more info (I don't know if this form is the same as gcms).

I believe webform is different than GCMS. Calling probably depends on who answers and that person's willingness to share information. It would be the quickest method to know the status if asked specifically as shiremag mentioned to ask if stuck in Criminality or Security

Ok then. I guess you've rightly said it - the willingness of the agent. Please make that call and keep us posted
