    Oddly enough, today I received, finally, a reply to a webform inquiry that I sent over two months ago (May 5) asking about the delay in my case. They assured me that they had checked my information and that my case was still in progress, and recommended that I use the online tool to check my...

    Got my certificate today. What a happy conclusion to almost two years of waiting and worrying and getting stressed out. Thanks to everyone here for the information and support you've provided along the way.

    That’s what worked for me. For months and months I was checking every day and getting more and more agitated and depressed about it, so finally I decided I’m just going to go on vacation and forget about it for a few weeks. And sure enough, when I finally checked my status again, it had...

    If my experience is any indication, you’ve got another three or four months to wait. But also, if my experience is any indication, you’ll get there in the end!

    Of course I haven't actually RECEIVED the certificate yet, but I'm cautiously optimistic that it won't be long now.

    I guess all my complaining and griping was for nothing, and I just needed to be patient! 1. We received your application for a citizenship certificate (proof of Canadian citizenship) on October 14, 2020. 2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on September...

    It would be nice, but no, not this applicant.

    Nothing at all. Have sent in webform inquiries, no response. Have tried calling, so far haven't been able to get through, but will keep trying. Have also considered getting legal representation, but the firm that hosts this bulletin board says they don't take this kind of case, and another...

    Mine has been like that since March 6, even though my status reads "Decision made." My application was received on October 14, 2020, a bit more than a month ahead of yours. There have been others, though, whose applications were submitted during that same time period and who have already...

    Thanks for that tip. I wasn't aware this was possible. The 21st century is passing me by!

    Unfortunately, I'm still in the US at this point. I had planned to move to Montreal two months ago, in which case I would have a Canadian phone number by now, but I think it would be foolish to make such a move until I know for certain that I'm going to get a citizenship certificate. There's not...

    Where did you find the toll-free number? I just went through the whole IRCC site without locating it. They don’t make it easy.

    The update is that it is still the same: October 14, 2020: Application received September 14, 2021: AOR March 6, 2022: Decision made Since then, nothing.

    That is a helpful suggestion, which I think I will try. I've already written to them via the webform and after a few days I got back a note that was probably written by a human being, but could also have been computer-generated, saying in essence: "Covid, staff shortages, we'll get to you when...

    Congratulations! I am glad to hear your good news, but even more worried about my own situation, because I have had "Decision made" since March 6, which was three weeks before yours, and still nothing has happened. I'm very worried that something has gone wrong with my application.

    Seven weeks for me (since March 6) and also no update.

    More than a month now since I got "Decision Made," and then ... nothing. Not long ago, people were getting "Complete" within two to three weeks after "Decision Made." Now, the IRCC website has been altered, giving even less info than before. All I can say is ... it's disheartening.

    Did it just say “complete” or did it also say that they sent your certificate?

    Mine changed to “Decision made,” but I haven’t received any notice from them as to what the decision was. Anyone know if they tell you via email whether you’ve been approved, or if you just have to wait until the certificate (or lack thereof) arrives in the mail? We received your application...
