Hi

I am in same boat with your timeline, but as I can not make the tracker, I have just received the IRCC emails, I already wrote the test, please let me know when they approved the test, will they send me the email for that confirmation?
Thanks

I am not sure what is wrong but my last portal update was Aug 13th with Citizenship test marked as completed.

I haven't received any update after that but more than that, I do not see anyone else receiving any major updates as well. The 2026 citizenship application - tracker (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...EEmBzqOccuj4/edit?gid=954054892#gid=954054892) does not have any updates as well where a decision is made.

Did IRCC stop processing stuffs or is the tracker broken again?

Yup, there has been no update since August 14. Wonder if other members are checking/updating the tracker.

There's no use calling IRCC as I have called 3 times since last week and they confirmed that the Tracker is not working due to technical issues. Creating a Tracker Account is not possible at the moment and they don't know when it will be fixed.

Hi , I had this difficulty for more than 2 months, after several back and forth via webform, they resolved the error!
