    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    I am sorry to hear that. It's something expected from IRCC as we have all experienced that since the time we applied for Canadian PR. They are not famous with efficiency.

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    Well, I did the same thing yesterday. At least we could know a thing or two about our applications. I have the feeling that January 2026 applications are much slower than those submitted in February and March 2026.

    Physical Presence Calculator

    It should be No as you're not physically present in Canada from 2021-2026. A resident status (temporary or permanent) is only when you enter Canada legally and stay in the country for a period of time (measured in "day(s)"). This is just my interpretation and should not be taken as legal advice...

    I am still waiting for my Physical Presence and Prohibition. My Language was passed on June 19th 2026.

    To be honest, IRCC is unpredictable. We can only hope!

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    My spouse got an ADR from IRCC after her test, saying they could not verify her ID during the test video as it appeared to be blurry and asked her to submit photo ID again. She submitted it, and they updated the test result to complete after 10 days. Hopefully, you will receive a second test...

    I feel you, my buddy! But there's nothing that we can do at this stage. Let's wait and see patiently, my friend, as any journey must have an end!!

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    Language was updated as completed this morning, while Physical Presence and Prohibition are still in progress. It looks like I will have to wait for a long time as LPP are usually updated at the same time.

    Jan Citizenship Application with No Buffer and Application Got returned for more information

    Seym makes a great answer to mention that the physical presence is calculated with 4 years immediate before the date you submit your application. It's locked and whether you're in Canada or not after submitting the application is irrelevant until you need to come back to Canada for Oath Ceremony...

    Jan Citizenship Application with No Buffer and Application Got returned for more information

    Well, you don't have to stay in Canada for applying cititzenship until you get Oath Ceremony invitation given that you have sufficient physical presence mentioned in citizenship application requirements. You can eventually take the citizenship test abroad. The only time you need to be physically...

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    I agree with you that the Canadian immigration process is stressful. I was lucky when my profile reached 45x in 2019, so that I could get an OINP nomination and ITA to apply for Canadian PR. The pandemic dramatically increased my application processing time, and it took me 30 months to get my...

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    I've noticed that IRCC is very slow to send out test invitations for Jan 2026 citizenship applicants.

    Yeah, I got the 2nd tracker email yesterday too. It seems a technical glitch!!

    I saw a couple of applicants who got AOR in middle of March 2026 updated with Test Invitation today on Google Sheet tracker!

    Waiting on oath + upcoming travel — will webform expedite?

    I don't think IRCC will speed up your oath ceremony just because of your personal travel. If you're applying for a passport, then yes, you can expedite your application with ServiceCanada. For IRCC, normally, there's no luck!!

    2026 January - Citizenship Applicants

    Yeah, I could create a tracker profile today, after waiting a day after receiving the email from IRCC.
