Hi Folks,

Is anyone here experiencing the same situation?

I applied for my citizenship in mid-March 2023 through a paper application. I received AOR on May 3rd, 2023, along with an additional information request from IRCC to explain the 5-year gap in my passport.

I submitted the explanation via Webform in May
, but the Tracker never updated to "We have received your documents." When I called IRCC, the agent informed me to just leave it, as everything is all good.

After 1 month of submitting the explanation, my background check was completed on June 29th in my online tracker, and I received the test invite on July 5th, which I completed on July 14th. The Tracker shows the test as complete on July 17th.

Currently, I am waiting for LPP to complete, and the status "waiting for additional info" is still there in my online tracker

I wanted to know if this is normal in the application process, as I heard that it could be there until the completion of the whole process. Or, is there something specific I should do or any action I should take?

Thank you!

Nov 2022 applicant here with LPP pending.
Mine has been like that since the time I got my AOR in Jan 2023. I think it remains like that until one fine day an officer decides to take a look at your file and update it. For some it has remained like that till the very end but with IRCC you never know what to expect!
