Looks like the February online applications are now getting their updates (BG complete / test invites) - hopefully the March applications should see some progress in the coming weeks!

Hi!

My AOr is on January 24, 2022. On my application tracker online it says everything is Completed except oath taking is in progress. Its been like that since. I check on ECAs my application for citizenship says Dicision Made. I did not get any notice or whatsoever.

I took my citizenship test on June 17, 2022. I read an article that they will sent notice for oath taking ceremony 3 months after you take the test until now no email or mail.

Anyone same boat sa me?

What is the date for the last update in your tracker?

Ceremony in progress means you have been scheduled for a ceremony meeting. If that happened today, wait for an email. Otherwise, check your spam for an email from IRCC

Did anyone recieve a forced password change request for the tracker today and then find a ghost update upon getting to the tracker?
No other changes since BG check completed May 24th. Not sure if the password change caused the update or if they are really working on my file.
Very odd the ghost update was Oct 7th but first appeared today Oct 13.

When I try and reset my password this error message appears
"Incorrect or invalid information. Review and ensure it matches the information submitted on the Use of a Representative [IMM 5476] form or the Authority to Release Personal Information to a Designated Individual [IMM 5475] form. If you can’t create an account, it may be because your client’s application is not in our system yet."
I clicked the box for "applicant," and I did not submit the forms for a representative.

Has anyone else run into this?

Remove the hyphens (-) from your UCI. Also I suggest to try again tomorrow, the system is full of errors today

If you scroll up the cause is near the top of the screen. I had the same error and it was that they were requiring a longer password 14 characters.

Thank you, removing the hyphens allowed me to reset the password.
The tracker shows an October 7 update but no change in the status.

Since your application was delivered in February, your entry is in the Feb tab of the spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_KE3Bu3C3gOyEm0mRVcJH9nEA2u2GOhfpUZOckOWmN0/edit?usp=sharing

Please continue posting updates in the February thread of this forum:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/february-2022-citizenship-applications.757112/

Few February 2022 applicants have seen background updates and Test invites coming through so you can expect things to move soon

I saw the same on mine same date. However I don’t believe that it indicates any attention to my application but rather a system wide change to password requirements. I wouldn’t get excited most apps are taking well over a year to make meaningful progress.
