Congrats BuzzBuzz! Apparently it takes a few days for it to show up on eCAS after the email - two discrete systems, it would appear.

Just checked again,

  1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 2, 2020.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on February 2, 2021.

Received AOR a few minutes ago.
Congrats MrMartn!

By the looks of the sheet, I wonder if there's some sort of internal mandate they're trying to hit because almost all of the status changes till now seem to be on the verge of (or immediately after) the 90 day mark for the actual receipt of the application. It's very interesting to see how consistent November is, compared to the previous couple of months - almost automated/mechanical with the small sample set that's already there. Will be keeping an eye to see if the trend continues because that would indicate a definite process change into the new year.

Good observation, guess the 90 day trend began close to Jan 22nd. Hope they keep up with the pace.

I like reading your observational summary!
