Thanks meayman. I did updated the info using web form. AFAIK, I don't think I mentioned any other address than my Canadian address in my citizenship application. so just curious to know if this is something common or am I the only one with this issue.
It's a common problem. I had that issue too, home address was up to date, but mailing address was from PR days. Not a big deal, you can easily submit a request on ECAS (not webform) to change it. Note, if your home and mailing addresses are the same, the mailing address will dissapear from ECAS after the update takes effect.

Alternatively, I believe it will automatically change to the correct mailing address once your applicaiton starts processing, even if you don't request them to change it now. But better to do it. Took 48 hours in my case for it to update.

Thanks razerblade.

How do I submit a request on ECAS? I only see a link on my ECAS which says "To change the mailing address, contact us" and that link takes me to https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/contact-ircc.html and I used the web form on that page to update the address. There is a option that says "change your address" on the above link, are you referring to that one?

Hi everyone.

I still can’t access my application online. It’s been 4days since I got the AOR email. Is this normal?

Another question. My PR card is expiring by the end of June 2018. Does anyone know how long is the renewal process In case the citizenship application didn’t finish by then?

Thanks for your input

Login to ecas using this link: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do?app=

Once logged in, it will show both your home and mailing addresses. I believe underneath the mailing address there's a link "Update this mailing address", clicking on which should redirect you to a form. You will need to provide both home and mailing addresses again, and then submit.

Thanks razerblade. clicking on update mailing address took me to the link which mentioned in my previous post and there i found two options to update address. one pointing to web form and other pointing to a form which you mentioned. I have updated both. I hope that would be ok.
