August 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[AUG2023]

What is a ghost update?
Do you get an email and no change in tracker or is it something else?

no email and no change in tracker

 

[AUG2023]

Checking for advice again since it is getting worrisome now as I can see almost everyone here is getting some sort of update.

Anyone with AOR between Sept 10-18 is still waiting for the next update?
I am AOR Sept 15, no GU or any follow-up and nothing at all after that.
Should I contact IRCC?

Hi everyone,
It’s good to read some of you are seeing movements on your applications. I applied online on August 18 but until today I have not received AOR. It’s worrying. Is this normal?

you should probably get it in the next week or two. This site says that they are sending AoR as of week of August 14. So, you are probably close.

Thank you for the feedback. I guess I am trying to make sense how IRCC can issue AOR to later applications and go silent on earlier ones. Mystery.

AOR SEPT 13 ONLY 2 ghost update but no test invitation

Yea, I saw your earlier message on the same. Thanks for informing. I wish you get 2 good updates soon

I am not sure now what should I do. Just wait for at least a month more before reaching out to IRCC?

 

[Vinami]

My understanding is that all AORs come from Sydney, NS and then the applications are distributed to local processing centers.
So far I have only received the AOR which has the center as Sydney, so I am not sure what local processing center has my file transferred to.

Okay, I see. One way to guess your processing center is to find and ask other fellows applying from the same region as you. After knowing your center and following up with other applicants, you may get a sense of the working speed of that center. Mine is in Montreal, from other Mtl fellows and my personal contacts, I know that Mtl is working efficiently right now which is a big relief.

How can I find all the current MPs, parties in power, and opposition part leaders for BC? Is it a secret or am i googling the wrong things

Hey how did you submit the fingerprints? My tracker shows they want me to submit fingerprints, since Oct 4, but I haven’t received any email instructions. What’s the process you followed to submit fingerprints? Thanks

Hi Sorry for the delay - I got an email with instructions, Im guessing you have by now too.
