Applied online Jan 30, 2021. No AOR yet.
Submitted two webforms, got a reply that they can't locate my application yet.
Called them, the agent said they didn't start processing January applications yet. I pointed out the website says applications from Feb are receiving AORs now, she answered not all applications from jan/feb would receive an AOR.
It's a big mess. But hopefully, the switch from paper to online reduces processing times for citizenship applications as it did for PR

I have applied online in February and still waiting for AOR. I have requested ATIP documents on the online app and backlog. I should have received it back in April, but they requested an extension and I should receive them in June. I will be sharing the documents once I have them.

Great initiative, please share the information once you receive.

If the online citizenship application is being processed slowly, may I ask , has anyone got AOR for their Online Citizenship Application? If so, when did you apply online? Dec 2020?

Did anyone else notice- when I went to have the digital photo taken the requirements stated that the minimum size is 420x540. Now it’s stating that’s the maximum size.... I printed out the first instructions when taking to the photographer and screenshot the current... yes they are saying the opposite so don’t know what to do now. Any thoughts?

My spouse applied online in 3rd week of April. Looking at the trend we are planning to do a paper application instead, with the same receipt used for online application. Can it have any negative impact? We were thinking the first one to get picked will be processed while the next one may be returned due to lack fee payment. These agonizing wait times to even get an AOR is really sad.
I am thinking of the same thing, was wondering if someone from Jan / Feb who applied online have already gone the paper route. It is worrisome that the IRCC website still says Online applications are randomly selected

Most important thing is they are saying that its not possible to apply without direct invitation to apply? How and to whom will they send this invite? Its very confusing.
