August 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[Smshukh]

Thank you. But will this be a problem when creating the tracker (since tracker will also require an email)? How do they tell which applicant the tracker is created for? Thanks!

For tracker creation u need uci and application number. I am still unable to create tracker for my daughter

Just did the test. Super easy. Now we wait.

From the Google Sheet, it seems like it takes 2-3 weeks from test date to decision made.

There are a handful of August applicants who did the test late September/early October. I anticipate this coming week we will have many people with decision made. You never know...

Checked the tracker this morning. Test shows as completed. Also, LPP shows as completed. All as of October 17.

Citizenship ceremony is "Not Started".

We're getting close...

The fingerprints email will provide instructions on how to provide fingerprints. They have to be done through RCMP (or approved third-party).

Completed the test on the 16th and the tracker just updated today. LPP in progress, Oath not started. I guess it's all a matter of waiting.

 

[Help2]

I have just received an email from IRCC regarding creating a tracker account. I have already created my tracker account on Oct 10th and recieved a ghost update yesterday. Is this what the ghost update was about ? Them sending me an email to create a tracker account?

AOR - Oct 6th
Tracker created on Oct 10th with last update being Oct 10th (assuming that was when my file got update saying my application was filed on Oct 6th)
Another ghost update yesterday Oct 18th and nothing on tracker and now I recieved this email from IRCC

I see on my tracker account:
Your next steps: Submit your fingerprints
Background verification: Waiting on you
You need to have your fingerprints taken so we can continue processing your application.
We sent you a letter or email with instructions to submit your fingerprints.

But I didn't receive such letter or email. Any insight on how to provide the fingerprints?

Thanks!
