I just read the article and I can't believe more people aren't talking about it on this forum! Luckily, I was PR and now a citizen :) but this forum really helped guide me through the whole process when I started it many, many years ago.

Good luck! And a tip for the Webform/status update - it wasn't clear to me when I made my inquiry, but you need to attach ALL of the documents you submitted with your application, including the app, IDs, copy of courier confirmation, etc. So be sure to make a copy of everything and have it...

I renewed mine last year - submitted in March 2021, it was supposed to take 90 days. I did not hear anything for 90 days so I had to submit a Webform for a status update - once I did that my application started moving. I would request urgent processing since you need the card for travel.

I received my citizenship certificate yesterday, March 17th (9 days after the ceremony / oath).

Hi all, I completed my virtual oath and ceremony on March 8, 2022 and as of March 9 my application is noted as "closed" because "Reason: We have approved your application to become a Canadian citizen."! I would like to note, during my Zoom oath/ceremony, my video froze and I was disconnected...

Congratulations! To clarify/confirm, we need to apply for a passport after we receive the citizenship certificate, correct?

On February 8, 2022, I received my oath/ceremony invitation. My oath/ceremony is scheduled for March 8, 2022 (virtually) I am an Edmonton applicant. Can someone update the spreadsheet?

Thank you for the info! So ECAS is different from the IRCC tracker....where do I access ECAS? EDIT: I found ECAS site and it reflects Decision Made

Hi everyone, I have an update in my application tracker. On January 11, 2022 - the following items went to "complete" - language skills, physical presence, and prohibitions. Can someone update the tracker? Only item left is Citizenship Ceremony. I haven't received any IRCC emails though. I...

Hello, my citizenship test status updated to "completed" on August 19th (I passed on August 10th). Can someone update the tracker?

Yes, this is where I find my updates. My "citizenship test" went to completed on August 19th.

App is short for "application" - so in this case, I am referring to my PR card renewal application.

I submitted a webform in June 2021 regarding my PR renewal application that I sent in March 2021 (since I did not hear anything). My application started moving a week or two after I submitted the webform. My renewal app was approved and I received my card in mid July 2021.

Hmmm....I recall on my app they asked for a copy of the PR card - maybe that has changed. Regardless, they should submit a webform to get their actual card since that is preventing them from leaving/entering Canada.

Submit a webform with all of your PR application documents (copies of everything you submitted for your PR app), plus include documentation/confirmation that your PR card application was delivered to the correct office/address. I think you need to be PR card to apply for citizenship....I...

Very similar timeline as me! My citizenship test has not been updated online yet but hopefully it will be soon :)

I did NOT request GCMS notes. So unfortunately, no correlation can be found. However, I had a PR Renewal in process at the same time as I knew my citizenship would not get approved before my PR expired in Sept 2021....So I submitted my PR card for renewal in March 2021. I had not heard...

I am an Edmonton (single) applicant - my citizenship application was delivered to IRCC March 11, 2020 AOR: Aug 29, 2020; ECAS went to "In-Process" Oct. 30, 2020; Background Check complete on Jan 15, 2021; Rec'd invite to take test on July 21 (to take test between July 23-Aug 12, 2021) -...

Finally took my test today (Aug 10) as I needed to take it by midnight Aug 12. Passed 19/20! I read the book twice, made notes, took a couple of practice tests (Richmond library's online test, I think)...reviewed my notes once more before the test. I believe I mentioned this before, but the...

That's what I thought- thanks for confirming. Will be studying (more) this weekend!
