I had my oath with the Montreal office on July 8, but my status in the tracker has still not changed. Anybody in the same boat? Is this a reason for concern, and what can I do at this point?

So, as stated, coming back to Canada to take the oath was never in question - I was always prepared to do that, and I've made that clear. I just didn't see why it would be necessary to stay in the country while the long application processing takes place. I'm ok with my application being treated...

Just discovered this thread, wanted to share my experience. I am outside Canada (working here in the US - left Canada a couple of months after receiving AOR), and I've let IRCC know at the time I was invited to take the online test. After the test and completion of my background check, I was...

Hello, finally some good news for me, it seems that last Friday/June 3 my tracker was updated with all remaining items (physical presence, prohibitions, language skills) set to Completed. There was a June 6 ghost update after that. Would this be the "Decision Made" update, or is that a separate...

Hello, my application seems completely stalled again (after taking the test in December and background check completed in January). Two months ago I was asked to provide passport scans and stamp translations, which I did some 6 weeks ago, since then nothing. Anyone had this happen to them and...

Alright, so I unfortunately seem to have a problem :( As shared earlier I've been requested to send passport scans with translations and to come back physically to Canada for that - I've decided to comply and made arrangements with my US employer to go there and stay several weeks, just in case...

Hey, can someone who received a passport scan request, confirm whether this will appear on the new tracker or not? I received an email, but there's no tracker update at all, so I'm trying to understand whether the other steps too might have been completed and they are just not updating my tracker.

Sure, looking at yours, they are very similar. Here's mine: 4/20 - submitted my application 8/28 - AOR 12/3 - test invitation 12/16 - taken the test (results updated on the tracker soon after) 1/25 - background check completed 3/22 - passport scans requested (and they're explicitly asking me to...

Thanks so much for your reply, @mohoozee! The letter I received requested me to provide entry stamps for my trip *back* to Canada, so this is how they would know I guess. But I can proceed and use the online translation service, and write them a reply referencing IRCC's own page stating that...

Hey guys, Montreal office seemingly woke up (had no updates since taking the test mid-December) and they're asking for passport scans, seemingly specifically because I had said that I don't live in Canada anymore. They're requesting me to first come back, and then send the passport scans -...

Same here, no updates since Jan 25, but I think my processing office is Montreal. Completed the test (mid-December) and cleared BG verification (Jan 25) so far.

Hey @mrc, it is not clear from what you wrote what is your question, but it sounds like IRCC is already aware that you are not in Canada (hence, they're asking when are you planning to come back). Why would updating your living address be misrepresentation - did you already live in the US when...

Hello friends, Time to come out of my lurk mode and check in with the group - hopefully we can help each other with these questions: 1) I see many here waiting for a long time to get a citizenship test invite after their BG check was completed. I actually have completed my citizenship test (in...

Hey everyone, Apologies if this was already asked - I had to leave Canada a couple of months after submitting my citizenship application. It was an online application, so aside from advising IRCC (per the instructions they sent) that I wouldn't be physically in Canada when taking the online...

Hey everyone, Unfortunately my application seems stalled again - I applied online (Vancouver) on April 20, only got AOR on August 25, and since then, absolutely nothing. No updates on the online tracker after Aug 26. I keep reading here that folks are having their tests already, whereas I...
