I'd write a clear email quoting this below link from IRCC FAQs and stating you are available to attend the ceremony in person at any time for the ceremony with two weeks notice (or whatever time you're comfortable with) because your current personal circumstances do not allow you to stay outside...

Can I ask when you filed the address change with IRCC? Did you file by phone, online address change form, or using the webform?

Travel documents are passports and passport-equivalents only. Non-passport travel documents are a very limited set. Refugees get travel documents from the host country since they typically have hostile relationship with their home country. US State Department also issues travel documents to...

I'd correct it by sorting it in a proper date order to make processing easier. Also it's easier to tell there are no gaps when it's sorted by date.

Correct.

Yes, there seems to be some disconnect in this process as I'd mentioned before with someone else's experience. Even when you return it's up to you to follow up and make sure your application is being processed. But it's also important to not think too much. If they say they want to schedule, imo...

No personal experience but it seems like they're just following an internal procedure that was probably created when processing times were quicker. For example, if you are on a vacation, they'd wait for you to return to ensure your availability and avoid no-shows just like when you book any...

Some people are seeing success writing to the email box of the local ircc office. clearly explaining the length of the wait. You could try that if you haven't already.

You can also use the search and advanced search functions on the top righthand corner of this site to locate those threads specific to your scenario and discuss with your closer peers. If you're waiting very long, you can order GCMS notes (search how to order gcms notes on the citizenship...

You have not specified what your other statuses are such as background, criminality etc. Also your original application date. Your local IRCC office (typically the town/city you live in unless you've changed address on file after applying) also determines the speed of processing to an extent...

In overwhelming majority of cases, the answer is yes. But there's one recent case where like a week after the applicant received the AOR, their status was set to Canceled (the application was likely returned for some reason). iirc it was an April applicant but this appears to be extremely rare...

Exception scenarios like yours are difficult to tell since there's not a lot of public info for Canadian status violations. For example, in the US, there's extensive discussions on the internet going back to the early 2000s on status violations, timely-filed applications, cured violations etc...

All the wait must have been awful, glad to see you've finally completed the process. It appears anytime the application deviates from the main processing stream, you're in for a long wait.

Submitting does not mean hitting submit button on DS160. It does not mean booking an interview slot. You can go back and read my prior posts in this thread. Ds160 is the application for a visa and submitting means handing over the application at an in person interview or at a Dropbox site. An...

I believe theres a link where you can authenticate and make the change yourself. No personal experience so not sure which method is superior.

Creating DS160 in the system doesn't mean submitting DS160.

@rishisingh86 As I said earlier, I wouldn’t change my plans based on what an anonymous person says. You need to get the data and go by what the data says. When I said previously people jump on discussions on living outside Canada and make it unsuable, this user is among those. If you go back...

As you may know, there are enough people on the forum that would immediately pounce on the thread as soon as this subject comes up and make the thread unusable afterwards. As someone waiting for so long without any explanation, they know you’re susceptible to any explanation, they will confirm...

No experience, but I believe someone said as long as the oath ceremony is online, you can be anywhere within Canada. (iirc, that was @harirajmohan). I also remember reading another post where someone originally filed with Montreal (iirc) until Decision-Made then tried to change address to...
