Hey I received a ghost update today too, the old completed tasks are coming up as "New Update" not sure why, hoping some stuff is happening in the background and it's a good sign...
Thank you for your input. Exactly the same situation here. I was wondering was it an actual ghost update or just a system update/glitch.

Application says Updated Dec 16,2022. Nothing new that I see
All log/timeline has "New Update" tag.

System update? or actual progress ?

Hi guys. Has anybody recently received a ghost update? My wife's app got one today. Wondering how long may it take to get an actual progress in the application.
Just checked my tracker and there was a ghost update for Dec 16 for my application as well. Old ones shown as new updates (AOR, bckgd, test invite, completed)... scarborough center

I got an email yesterday asking for copies of my passport - even though they have it already - sent them back same day. Back to waiting. :confused:

timeline so far


Application Type: Online
Location: Vancouver
Physical Presence Days: 1100 ish - I’m doing this from my phone and don’t have the number to hand
Application: Single
Application sent: November 23 2021
Delivered: November 23 2021
AOR: February 8th 2022
In progress: foreverrrrrr
Test invite: August 15 2022.
test complete: sept 2 2022
Email requesting passport copy: Dec 15 2022
Almost same timeline!
1100 days, single online application, submitted Nov 23, AOR Feb 8th, test complete Sept 1, email requesting passport copies Dec 15!

Did you send everything in a single file? I have 2 passports to scan so not sure how to fit everything in under 5MB or can it be multiple files each under 5MB?

I'm starting to seriously consider if its worth withdrawing the application and refiling it via the paper method ..

Why do you have to withdraw? you can just apply another paper one and have both processed. you should "specifically" ask them to process both though
