[DECEMBER] Online Citizenship Applicants

[rafzy]

hello all,

just curious why family applications are not eligible for online? any ideas?

TIA

It's because online application rite now is just a trial from IRCC. Maybe once the trial qualifies, then they will move everything online.

i see what you mean, tks for responding. then i may need to go down paper path, dont want to wait till trial finishes

anyone knows what below statement means from here:

We’re prioritizing applications from

• Canadians trying to return to Canada
• vulnerable people
• people who perform or support essential services

what kind of priority can one expect?

TIA

This applies to me as well and I am looking how this can help my citizenship file to get processed quickly since I am an individual performing essential services .

People are failing to submit left right and center. I don't think anyone has figured out why some can and some can't submit online

I know people have tried calling, anyone had a useful answer? Should I bother calling?

So....Surprisingly I just submitted the Online application... after a few ''errors'' Yay! I'm nervous cause I already applied by mail only a week ago but tbh at this point they may see the online before they see the mail one, plus I just realized the mail one has a huge mistake on my current passport dates, so I'll take it as I just resubmitted an updated mistake-free (hopefully) version of my application.

Can i be added to the online tracker?

 

[simfhs]

can i apply online if i already applied by mail?

i do not think its good idea, as someone earlier provided this link: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/canadian-citizenship/admininistration/general-file-processing/procedure-multiple-applications.html

if you already applied try contacting them, to maybe withdraw one of the application. Maybe you can withdraw once you get AOR.

Were you able to resubmit after error first time? Most people in this thread could not resubmit after failing once

 

[jasmine07]

aside from the confirmation on the website, should there be an email confirmation when you submitted online?

No, noone got an email after submission. As it says on confirmation page, they will email later with AOR
