My wife's AOR is 11 days after mine, but her background is now complete, and mine is still in progress. You'd think it would be FIFO. Makes me wonder if she's being processed out of a different office. My test invite came from Calgary, so I assume that's my office. She hasn't gotten a test invite.

It's very odd to me they're being processed so differently (unless there's some problem with my background). I wonder if I'm going to get a FPR and she will not.

Whats FPR?
 
Two family members (not in tracker) got citizenship test notification, one got the email invite (test period covering February). The email invite seems to be Scarborough (SCR), even though we're not in SCR. That office have any particular reputation for speed/slowness? Not very many entries for SCR.

what is ghost update?
 
Updated date changes in the tracker with no visible changes
what tracker is this? gckey account, inspect tool, or the cas web tracker? for some reason I never am able to locate anything in cas - its only though gckey and there nothing changes
 
Thanks for sharing. This is the first time I am seeing this. I always thought tracker meant the CAS tool, is this also used to track pr card renewals?

Update: I just tried, looks like this is not good for pr card tracking, I don't yet have AOR yet for Citizenship app, probably next week I will get - one I get it I can start using this one. Thanks for sharing this is helpful

eCAS only works for Paper application. For online you have to use the new tracker. I am not sure about PR tracking with this.
