Anyone else still have no movement since AOR? I'm starting to think I may need to renew my PR at this rate....
My friend case:
Age is over 60
Single and Online applications;
No English proof required
No Citizenship test required
Application date: Feb 21st
AOR received: Mar 28 and
Location: BC

NOTHING ELSE ever since!...

The tracking for Time line still says 27 months for "Grant citizenship" though... It looks like IRCC is following the Time line :(

No updates at all.

They have such a bad processing system in place. Anyone who applied online should be processed quicker than paper applications as everything is already uploaded into their system!!!!! If anything, paper applications should be processed last. The whole process doesn't make any sense and is extremely annoying.

Citizenship test now shows as "Completed" in the tracker today. Not sure if that needs updating on the spreadsheet

This is unbelievable! People applied online still waiting forever while paper applications are processed faster. I am October online applicant. Nothing update. nothing whatsoever! All online waiting forever. This is completely unfair.

Congratulations, and I am sorry if my message seemed bitter. I was just awed that everything completed for paper applicants while online are dragged forever. But that's the way it is for now. I hope all the best to everyone. Thanks again for sharing your timeline.

It is costly (you lose the 530$ of processing fee for those of us who already got their AOR).
