2025 JULY Citizenship applications

[Ganbaro]

Myself and my family member had test invites from team 2. I received an update within 3 days. My family member took his test on the 15th and still hasn't received an update.

Test updated to complete today for my family member.

Received the test invite email, Team 2

Test marked complete on Dec.20 and update in tracker this morning

Took test on 13th December, marked as complete today. Just the LPP left to go. I'm applying from Victoria BC so I'm assuming the visa office is Vancouver. It feels like the wait is almost over.

True. The IRCC agent told me the FP part of my BG is complete but others are pending. Meaning, my file is likely with CSIS for a comprehensive check. At this point, the progress will depend on when CSIS finishes their check. I need to stop checking my tracker everyday

You can actually request GCMS/ATIP note from CSIS to get more info on your case.
Just select CSIS as the authority in your ATIP portal.

(The usual GCMS notes are from CBSA and IRCC)

Thank you! I actually submitted ATIP requests to all three institutions last week - IRCC, CBSA, and CSIS. The information from various social media sites suggests that CSIS may take several months or even up to a year to provide these notes. No accountability.

I used to get one CSIS note in the past for my PR application. It came back very quickly (2-3 weeks).
Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?), it says they have no info on my profile in their database, which seems to suggest that my PR app didn't go through extensive security check.

Had my oath ceremony yesterday virtually, haven't received any link to download my certificate, will keep you folks updated.

hi Rayna, Have you received your Certificate link just yet? thanks!

hi Rayna, Have you received your Certificate link just yet? thanks!

Interestingly enough, today I received the paper certificate NOT the e-certificate which I requested, I never received any link. The certificate itself is printed on a mass-produced paper which is why the print quality isnt good. But I'm not that bothered.

Might be better for others (if they can) to request e-certificate instead and print it on a higher quality paper in colour.

Your timeline is exactly like mine except that I’m still waiting for LPP. When was it marked completed? Hope you get your oath invite soon
