What will happen if I become a citizen during sponsorship?

[Jasmine54]

Hello,
I am sponsoring my spouse and would like to apply for citizenship. I am wondering what will happen if I become a citizen while the application is still in process?
Will I be need to update the sponsorship application? Will I be able to travel for extended periods of time like citizens? Thanks.

Yes, update them with the info. Apart from the ability to sponsor while residing abroad, nothing changes.
