March 2022 - citizenship applications

Hi Everyone ,

Finally, after 3 ghost updates I got fingerprint request i am AOR april 20th ! the update was today but, on the bottom, says requested November 4th but I haven't received the email yet? unless they sent a letter and maybe i should check my mail today, I already booked my fingerprint for tomorrow just in case.

My updates always happen several days after the tracker says that they happened, so it might still be coming. Check your spam folder too. I had my test email go there.

Do you remember when your Ghost updates were? I got two ghost updates and still nothing - called ircc told me they are asking for Fingerprint.

I can't remember exactly but I had like 4, I believe this were the dates, the one everyone got in October then October 28th then November 1st and 4th( this one 4th I am not sure) , today I saw it change to November 8th on the top and the fingerprint request updated as requested November 4th but I don't have the email yet. I guess an officer was actively going into my application, I have been following different timelines maybe in a week you will see and update ? I am April 20th AOR

Hey guys, how long does it normally take for fingerprints to show as “received” from the day you do it on an agency?

Hi, my BG was completed on October 19th, and I received a ghost update on October 21st. I called IRCC and found that my application moved to the Niagara Fall IRCC office on October 21st.

I am extremely grateful for your response. I want to ask - on the back of what you may know, what is the longest that a Ghost Update could happen without any further development? And could this simply be an officer failing to click a button (as I do not know what could be the issue since I am squeaky clean).

Thanks for your anticipated response.

First, I would ask you to relax and calm down (I knowm easier said that done). You will get there. From what I have seen, sometimes ghost updates can take many months to show anything. Not all ghost updates mean progress. Sometimes when officers open your file, other times your file may transfer to another office, and you may receive a ghost update for both cases without having any real progress on your file. It’s hard to say until you see the update or order GCMS notes. You can order GCMS notes, it will shed light on your file, and help to calm your anxiety one month down the line.

Hey fellows,

I finally passed my test. (20/20)

I would like to thank everyone who provided their feedback which really boosted my confidence.

Can anyone please advise on how long do I have to wait for everything else to be completed and citizenship oath after the test is marked completed?

I would highly appreciate your feedback on this so that I can make my travel plans back to Canada accordingly.

Thank you.

You are not alone. Many people in your situation. All are stressed. Try to check your tracker every week may be every 10 days. Try to occupy yourself with things, hobbies. Read Discover Canada if you are bored. Don't stress yourself. You getting stressed will not make IRCC rush your application.

I was asked to provide PCC for the period I was working at Qatar , I never stayed for more than 6 months as I was travelling frequently , but overall stay was 16 months . So do I need to let them know
