I have almost the same timeline as yours but I am below 55 and received a FP request in July. May I ask from which city did you apply? I applied from Mississauga and I don't know what should I do?! My family applied shortly before me and they are all Canadian citizens now.

I attended my Oath ceremony yesterday and my application status updated to "Complete" today. Admin, please update the spreadsheet. Thanks so much for all the support on this forum. I will periodically check the forum when I can so I can help answer some of your questions. Good luck to those that are still in process and congratulations to the ones that have completed their application process.

Atleast CIC should call you for interview and document check.

Hi Qureshi,
You can now figure out how they are processing cases. No FIFO method its plainly LIFO I feel.
I will contact the IRCC call center and also put a webform enquiry in the 1st week of Jan when I complete 12 months.
If we contact now the reply will be you file is in order and you are within the 12 months processing timeline.

When you apply as a family and the parents get the decision made status on ECAS, does the "decision made" status appear on the ECAS for children as well or will it still say "in process"?

I received a fingerprint request letter from CIC today, and the UCI and Application Number fields are blank in it, there is no name or anything on the email or the PDF attachment.

The problem is that me and my wife both have the same email for our application so we don't know who this request is for.

Is this normal to not have any UCI/name or application number missing on the request letter? If I take this letter to RCMP and give them my UCI/Application number will that be okay?
