What time of the day do you see the new updates on the IRCC trackers? Is it always in the mornings or does it appear at any time?

Hello Everyone,

We are also applicant from Feb, we received online test email from CIC. one of our family member is Outside of Canada for the next 3 months. we have not replied with 24-48 hours as stated in the email, we will be replying soon.

a) As per my understanding he can take the online exam from outside of Canada. do you know what to expect if someone has not replied early within 24-48 hours ? anybody in similar situation?
b) also other member can take the exam from inside Canada ? any issues? or all family members have to take exam from same place and around the same time?

Thanks your help

You can keep ordering as frequently as you want. If everyone keeps ordering notes without any purpose, that system also will break down just like webform did.
Thank you. I didn’t order yet, just was wondering how many times possible…I think everyone have purpose when order ones-to know on what stage are they and why they wait so long

I understand you're probably not planning to do it that frequently but it's just a gentle reminder for anyone reading the thread, that's all. Because someone always sees things like this and takes it to the extreme.

There were cases here where I believe someone who was delayed started applying GCMS weekly without realizing application processing and ATIP are handled by different offices. If someone's sitting in immigration detention or given like a 10 year ban or involved in a lawsuit with IRCC, they're all going to be delayed while people with no real reason go nuts with their ATIP requests.
