Did you have to pay $110 for express pick up?

Does this come as an email or what? My application is finalized and closed. Oh I later found this link https://ircc.canada.ca/visit-visiter/en/get-account-ircc-portal, use it to retrieve your certificate if IRCC worker hasn't sent you the link. Just create an account and download your thing especially if you have sent them the oath of citizenship form and your case has been closed. Thank you everyone. I am out!

It really makes me wonder what the heck is going on with that office?

it doesn't matter how often you check, for any action items (interview, oath) you will get an email

anyone know if there is a whatsapp group and google spreadsheet for people with applications that are being processed in Sydney? If not can we create one?

If there is one already created, would someone be able to share the link as I wouldn't mind looking at the spreadsheet to understand how really "slow" is Sydney office. Thanks

Hello All,

I applied for Citizenship of my kids in Dec 2022 with me as the parent who already had a Citizenship. Now I did receive AOR for one kid via email for 2nd i never received it from IRCC but could see that it was in progress using ecas tool. I see today using ecas that the app status claims as Decision Made but we have not received any email update from IRCC on both cases. Has any one ever faced this situation before? What does this mean?
