october 2017 citizenship applicants

[meayman]

HAH!! I JUST received my AOR!!! Six hours after I received the reply to my Web form. Finally!!! I have a feeling my web form inquiry kinda pushed things a bit. Either way, glad I can finally stop stressing about my application - it's in motion

I can also access my ECAS whereas I couldn't this morning. Could someone update the tracker?

Good morning!! What a nice morning to wake up to!! Checked my ecas and saw my test invite. Good job Winnipeg! Please update my details in the spreadsheet please.

We sent you a notice on December 28, 2017 to appear and write the citizenship test on January 18, 2018 at 1:45 PM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

Just a note about my application: I landed as PR and spent 183 days in my home country pre-PR. I did not include a police certificate in my application. Not sure if they'll request the PCC after this.

Updated.
Congratulations!

Hi everyone, my application was sent on October 17th, received on 23rd. I just checked my ECAS ( which is part of my daily routine) and it shows " We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on October 23, 2017." It's a big relief... however I have not received an email yet. Any thoughts or similar cases ? Thank you !

From what I saw you will be receiving your AOR shortly.

I hope so, thank you ! Btw I just checked my ecas and a new line was added today : (2) We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on December 28, 2017.
Can I consider this as AOR or is the email mandatory ?

The email contains your citizenship file number, which is important to have. Also, future correspondence may be sent via email, therefore it is imperative to make sure that IRCC has the correct email address on file for you. Did you check your spam/junk folders ? If you have a copy of your application, please make sure that you provided a valid email address. You could try calling the call center to inquire.

Hi all,

Just came across an interesting article at CBC on the surge of citizenship applications with 17,500 filled in week after requirements revised, compared with 3,653 in an average week

http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/politics/canadian-citizenship-increase-changes-1.4456879

Hope the government added enough human resources to handle the tsunami of applications within 5-6 months

Im re-doing my application, can any one let me know if we have to select the option yes/no for the question have you ever applied for citizenship ?

I am thinking of NO as AOR was never generated !!

Thanks
