August 2022 Citizenship Applications
- Thread starter shiremag
- Start date
How do you know if you got a ghost update? I've never seen that happen on my applications so far.
In the top Right, if you see the date change and nothing happen on your application, thats the ghost update
Thanks! So far I've applied for 3 work permits, 1 PR, and 1 Citizenship and never seen that happen. I would usually either get an accompanying email or there is really an update on my application profile.
Normally the email is 2 working days after the Ghost Update
Maybe someone can confirm?
There is no email for updates on the citizenship portion, maybe for PR and other things we did have emails for updates.
Right now, if your "Updated" date changes and no update shows up in the list, that means it's a "ghost" update and something happened on your file. Most times an update will follow in 2 days. Sometimes a ghost update does not follow up with an actual update, that would be because something happened but no notable milestone to report.
The tracker lags behind GCMS for 48-72 hours. so updates usually show up 2 days after the date they are made.
The officials do send actual emails about your applications in the case they need something (like fingerprints, passport copy) or if you need to take a test, or if you need to attend an oath.
I've been following this forum and just made an account to share my progress with you all:

At the time I applied, I was quite worried about the 24+ processing time and all the talk about paper vs. online applications. It seems IRCC has clearly picked up their speed since then, and online applications are being treated a lot more fairly. Less than 6 months from application submission to DM. Now a little more wait and this 9+ year journey is about to come to an end.
Good luck everyone
