I am not sure what is wrong but my last portal update was Aug 13th with Citizenship test marked as completed.

I haven't received any update after that but more than that, I do not see anyone else receiving any major updates as well. The 2026 citizenship application - tracker (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...EEmBzqOccuj4/edit?gid=954054892#gid=954054892) does not have any updates as well where a decision is made.

Did IRCC stop processing stuffs or is the tracker broken again?

I haven't had an update since April and I applied in January. It certainly seems like processing has been very slow. May be to do with vacation days over the summer? I don't have an answer
