Update Tracker is Now working. I can see everything is in Progress.

Wait, is "Citizenship test" and "Citizenship ceremony" also in progress for you? For me, everything except these 2 are in progress

I got AOR today (conditional I would say). I have received another email to submit the PCC

I was able to create my tracking account today.

I am able to create tracker account.

So did you just straight up receive an AOR along with the PCC request - (in another email as you said)?

I thought PCC requests are much later huh..

On tracker it shows additional documents (PCC) required dated 19th June, that is same as my AOR was issued.

Has any deadline been given to submit the PCC ?

I have been given 60 days as per the letter which I believe is the standard procedure. However, I believe you can ask for an extension before the end of 60 days deadline.

Hmm… that won’t be enough time for me. I believe I’ll be asked to provide a PCC, and 60 days likely won’t be sufficient. It usually takes at least 3–4 months after visiting the Japanese embassy to request it. Let’s see how things unfold. Hopefully, I’ll receive the AOR within the next 10 days.
Have you already placed the request? Is 60 days enough to get that from Singapore?

Yes, I applied as soon as I got the letter from IRCC. Singapore official turnaround time is 7-14 days but they may take longer than that. My suggestion is submit the acknowledgment of application, as soon as you receive response from Japanese authorities, it should state how long it’ll take for them to process it, and request IRCC to extend the deadline. I’m sure they know the process and they won’t make any fuss about it.
I hope it works out for you quickly. Wish you good luck!
