Hello Guys ,

I have applied (online) for the citizenship on Oct 8th 2021 , Got AOR on Dec 24th and since then the status is In Progress is any one on the same boat

Thanks
Anil Kumar
You are 'slightly' ahead of me in terms of timeline but we are in the same boat sadly.

*I also ordered GCMS Notes exactly 2 weeks ago. Does not seem to have made any difference. Checked this morning and all Indicators still 'In Progress'.

Hello guys, finally I was asked to take the citizenship test! Wow, I cannot believe it took this long ( I applied online on October 2021). Anyway, the situation I am right now is, I’m currently moving to a different province (from Alberta to Nova Scotia) and was wondering if anyone knew how to update my address? I tried by logging into the CIC website but I couldn’t seem to find a way to do this :/
Congrats eh
You can update your address tru old tracker and webform.
I moved to other province too.. while I updated my address I also use a service with canada post for forwarding the email from old address to new one... just in case

Cheers

Attention Online applicants:
Guys, there is no need crying over spilt milk or trying to change from online to paper, can someone who is good in crafting petitions help in creating a petition about this to house of commons and share the link so we all sign the petition https://petitions.ourcommons.ca/en/Home/Index
I think we need that petition because paper apps are getting their oath while us online are stuck in no processing at Sydney's office. God knows when they would ever look at us!

Was your an expedited application? If so, what was the purpose for requesting it?

Your timeline is very similar to mine. I sat my test in May, I could have done it end of April but needed time to study.
All of my statuses are changed to completed on my tracker except citizenship ceremony. Last updated June 7. Hopefully it won't take too long. My application was not expedited either.

How much time did it all take after test completion for other status to be updated ?
My last update was June3 when my test got updated, just trying to figure an avg time it takes to get the rest of the updates

Applied for GCMS notes on June 8 and got a ghost update yesterday (June 13). Hope I get a test invite soon... Oct 3rd applicant.

two questions:

1. Does everybody get fingerprint requests?
2. How much time does it require to study for the test?
