I'm sorry if someone has already asked but, what do we do if there has been no progress in my application?

Since submitting on November 2023, I have done fingerprints, and citizenship test, the fingerprints were received in Jan, and test was successfully passed in Jan.

Since then, there has been no update at all for 3 months. My background, Prohibitions, Language, and Physical Prescence are all still in-progress. I submitted from Calgary but I think my processing office is Vancouver.

Should I be concerned about this delay? I ordered GCMS notes a month ago and checked them but there doesn't seem to be anything there that indicates a problem.

Is there anything I can do to somehow get an update on my application? I'm getting concerned there is something wrong.

Hey everyone, has anyone else received a request to submit scanned pages of their passport? I sent mine in two months ago and haven't received any updates on my application yet. I contacted IRCC and they mentioned they're still processing it, but I'm curious about the timeline. It's strange because my wife's application was completed, and she obtained her citizenship about a month ago. Thanks!

Same thing, but only the background check is still in process. Chances are we're undergoing comprehensive security screening.
