September 2025 - Citizenship Applications

[sodapop123]

Hi All, New to this Thread!

Applied Sep 7, 2025. Like many other threads, Yet to receive AOR.

Days: 1100

My friend who applied earlier this year got the entire application processed quickly in 5 months. Wondering how long its going to take for those applied in the second half of the year.

As of now, the current processing time on IRCC website says 13 months for the entire application.

It used to be 6 or 7 months back in early 2025 / late 2024, but not the case any longer.

So watch your email / progress updates but expect a year's wait and plan accordingly.

At this rate, I think quick would be 6-8 months, let's see!

Could be less if you're lucky and the application is 100% accurate & simple/straightforward. But could be more than 13 as well, so i wouldn't bank on it.

I got an email from IRCC that I can now track my application on tracker. When trying to create an account it says that technical error. Based on other forums its their website issue. My AOR was on 7th NOV and I got the email for Tracker today.

I get the same error. Tried with my previous account, reseting my password and creating a new account and same error everytime.

Hello Guys an update. My AOR was nov 7th. Submitted sept 4th. I saw on other forums to change time to Nov 10th 1AM and actually it worked. I was able to create my tracker account. And it says my Background Check is completed and everything else is in progress. Never heard background completed so fast. Good sign.

tried this and now I'm not getting the technical error but it says my info is incorrect. How long after receiving the AOR and the tracker email can I access my tracker?

That's why I said 6-7 months if it's quick, everything here is just a guess though, every application is based on their own merit ‍

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share an update. I received the tracker email from IRCC last week, but I kept running into a technical error whenever I tried to log in or create an account. Changing the date and time to November 10th at 1:00 AM fixed the issue, and I was finally able to check my application.

Hi, is the tracker email the same as the AoR email where the AoR was attached as a PDF? I'm wondering if I need to use the link in the PDF to track my application?

You get another email few days after AOR about tracker. The link is same. But takes few days for tracker to be activated.

Update:
Nov 17: received mail to Submit rcmp fingerprints
No mail yet for tracker

I have not seen anyone talking about giving fingerprints. Is my application anomaly?

Will this delay overall application process?
