Lol, I’ve been waiting a month and 3 weeks after BGC completed.
The timeline is backwards now, not as many updates across the board

Update: On old ecas --Shows In Progress. Under New tracker all In-Progress & date change ( top right ) to today (24 Nov).

1. We started processing your application on November 23, 2021.

Please update the tracker.

Any idea when & what should I expect next?

Can someone please shed some light on what to expect next for this question? Thanks in advance

It would take a day to update on the new system and then most probably they'll have the Background Check completed within a week, and after that wait for the test invite.

Hello,

I received my fingerprints request today. The letter says the following:

You are receiving this letter because your fingerprints are required to continue processing your application for Canadian citizenship. After reviewing the biographical information on your application form, there are questions in your case with regard to sections 21 and/or 22 of the Citizenship Act, explained further on the second page of this letter.

Do you guys know if this is a standard fingerprint request? I don't have any criminal record or prohibitions. I was surprised to see that part so I wanted to check if this is a standard request or specific to my case.

Thank you.

Yes Kareem. That's the to standard wording. I received the same exact email.

glancing through the April group and tab on the spreadsheet. It looks like online applicants who sent their info in mid April are now getting next step intimations - fingers crossed.

How do you know which are online vs. paper based?

as per the pattern, you should see your BG completed in a couple of days to week time period

I dont think this is a standard practice?

For me my application reached on 27th of May, Recieved AOR early September and since then I got TWO recent ghost updated ( 26th October) and (10th November) and still my Background check is in progress.

I don't think so. I just mentioned what I had noticed from the edits people had made in the spreadsheet.

From my perspective, ghost updates are good. Atleast they are working on your application
