    Is your Language and Prohibitions completed? If you look at the wording in Language and Prohibitions, a lot of it sounds like background checks so maybe that's what they mean?

    July 2022 Citizenship Applications

    I had similar questions when I had to travel back in September. The IRCC website does ask you to inform them (Google for the after applying in the citizenship section). So I submitted the web form and they didn't acknowledge it for weeks. Anyway, it takes way less time to do it (literally a...

    July 2022 Citizenship (Online Application Only)

    Yeah. But it's just a few days of difference so I don't think it matters anything. But, anyway, I just gave the citizenship test today. Let's hope the ball keeps rolling ahead with momentum.

    July 2022 Citizenship Applications

    That's correct. Everything except (Citizenship Ceremony, of course) is "In Progress". I didnt get any so-called ghost update emails. The only comms I received was a test invite on Dec 2 and when I logged in to the tracker after that I saw a timeline stating on Nov 30, they changed the status of...

    July 2022 Citizenship Applications

    I didn't inquire about the status of my application via the web form. I did however notify them of my 2+ week travel outside Canada (for which I received a generic email response). So I am curious what this email means since my application had been in progress for the various checks since July...

    Hello. I received an email yesterday stating "We verified the information you provided and have forwarded it to the responsible office." I don't see any changes on my application tracker. Is this what people refer to as ghost update? Or is it just a matter of a lag between the email and the...

    July 2022 Citizenship Applications
