Sent application for 3 family member including minor. All returned mentioning my and my wife’s application is complete but minor is missing due to identification documents. Now I got all correct documents for minor. Is it fine to send same set for me and my wife which was returned along with minor’s completed document? Or have I to again fill new application for me and my wife?
Did you send 2 copies of the minor's bio page or 1? Some people send only one copy and assume that it will be used for passport bio as well as identification.

Is it mandatory to send 2 copies of passport bio page for a minor? Are there any cases when 1 copy was not sufficient and returned?

What was wrong with the minor's application package, what was missing?

Yes, I read a case recently where application was returned because passport bio page was only submitted once and assumed that it would also be considered a piece of ID.

From May 2022 applicants ? None. Same from April and March.
And from Jan and Feb, about 4%, or 7 out of 176 applicants, as per the spreadsheet tracker.
weird, because Oct-Dec 2021 applicants are still delayed. Oct applicants online are just receiving tests, Nov and Dec still waiting. I am confused when you say that Jan, Feb online applicants have taken their tests. Are you sure?

Has anyone noticed that all the applications since January 2022 which have received interview/test date were paper applications? Not a single online application. Is processing paper-based applications faster?
yes paper apps are faster, but online are picking up a bit of speed. October 2021 online applicants are saying that they are receiving test invites these days. I am late October online applicant. Haven't received anything. But will update on the Oct 2021 and Nov 2021 forum when I receive the test invite.

A friend submitted paper application in April 2022 for a family of 4 and received test invite last week. Paper application looks like the real deal

Yes, paper applicants from January 2022 are getting oath invites! While many of us online applicants from the first half of 2021 are still waiting.

Now time to complete my duplicate application and make a paper version and mail it to IRCC given that IRCC isn't working on online applications.
Email or Mail? And what Does it say Please and Thank you

I think you didn't quite get the whole situation.

My wife and kids have sent in a paper application.

My citizenship time was completed 3 months earlier, so I applied online.

I am now thinking if I should send a paper application as well, because paper applications are being processed much quicker.
