October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

[Sands1290]

Did you take your citizenship test already?

Yes I did. I took the test on 28th and it’s updated in tracker on 31st

I have few questions reading this forum:
1. How do you see ghost updates?
2. If background is completed, do you see results of background tests?
3. Can you apply for PR renewal while you wait for the citizenship processing, if it is about to expire? Would it have any impact on citizenship application?

1. It’s basically seen in the tracker.
2. If background is completed. You will see it in tracker as completed. You don’t see any results or so.
3.Citizenship has no connection with PR . You can renew PR and it will not have any impact on your application

Can you give the link of the Youtube Videos which have the questions?

This video is really helpful and I prepared for my test only using this video. However there were 5-6 questions that I got in my test that was not there in the video but I was lucky to get those answers right. So don’t completely rely on this video. It’s a suggestion based on my experience

Ok, you have received your AOR on Oct 22. That email (and the attached letter that goes with it) is your AOR.

You do not need a separate email with a link to the tracker. In our AOR letter, at the end, there is a link that says "Checking the status
of your application". You only need to click on that and follow the instructions. Good luck!

Thank you. This is super helpful.

"Hi everyone, Happy New Year to all! I have a question about applying for Canadian citizenship. I arrived in Canada in November 2019, received asylum approval in June 2021, and got my PR card in March 2023. Could someone help me calculate when I would be eligible to apply for citizenship? I’d really appreciate your assistance. Thanks!

i'm sure you'll get other suggestions but it will probably be easiest and straightforward if you apply March 2026. Sometimes people face issues proving/verifying their time here before being PR because IRCC doesn't always keep proper records.
