May 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[Swift Turtle]

Hello, the link is here:
https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do
However, it's working for paper applications only.

Thanks for the link.

I entered my information, but my application can't be located in ECAS unfortunately. I assume that's because I'm an online applicant?

I guess it's back to waiting for me.

Yes, it will not work if you are an online applicant. The waiting game is on for all of us, but on an optimistic note, May is around the corner, hopefully we will get an update soon.

Hello Everyone,

My Test status updated to complete March 21 but since then no update? Any clue how long for the Oath ceremony?

Thank you for the optimism. We really need it at this moment. You're in the Vancouver office, no?

My application was delivered on 2 May and I haven't seen an update on my file since August (ghost update). Everything is still in progress, no test invite.
I wonder why it takes so freaking long, so many people are already done from this cohort.

It's better to order your gcms notes to check any updates on your file

Has everybody whose oath ceremony was in late March/early April received their certificates? How long did it take? @shubham710 you had the oath a week before me and I was wondering if you got your certificate yet?

Hi, got my Oath Invitation today for 6th May 2022. I directly got the email but there is no update on my tracker. I guess the tracker is not working and maybe the oath update was already there but not showing.

Tracker should be working now. Got my test status update right now. Timeline in signature.

Finally got my citizenship oath scheduled for May 11th.

Just to clarify something: I've read here before people saying the tracker only gets updated in the morning. That is not true.
I had checked twice already today, at 8 am and at 12 PM. It only got updated after noon.

All my previous updates did happen in the morning though.

I think today's afternoon update is because they were working on the fix. It will most likely now continue to get updated once a day as before.
