February 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[yankyridzz]

My revised application got delivered today. Do I need to again wait for 1.5 months to receive an update?

There's no specific pattern. I have dates similar to yours and have completed the test. But my background is still not complete.

It's all over the place. I think if you check out the April 2022 thread there are folks who have just completed the test after a year of waiting.

Have patience. Hopefully, you will get it soon.

Thanks for your response! Yes, I understand that and I know I need to be patient. I will do my best hahaha. However, my question is if anything changes on the online tracking when they send you the email?

Thanks

Small update on the delivery date: today

Type: Paper application
Location: Montreal
Physical Presence Days: 1290
Application: Family (4)
Application sent: 2 Feb 2023
Delivered: 7 Feb 2023
AOR: ??

Did you notice when you sign the application that gives an error that the date must be one day AFTER the TO date -calculator date- ? i can't validate it if i type the same date as the calculator, only one day after. ?

AOR received Feb 23rd, still no updates. Any one in similar situation ?

I have 21st Feb aor and nothing yet. And people with March Aor have given citizenship tests too. Feels so weird. Lol

Are you sure you did not miss the AOR email? It would be from "@cic.gc.ca" with a pdf attached.

I just got off the phone with IRCC Client Support, and they seem to be starting with my application but have not yet created a record for my wife or my children; she gave me my application ID but was unable to find any application IDs for my family; therefore, I will have to wait until they create a record for each of them.

my application was returned. It seems that after correcting my form several times, I forgot to sign the one I submitted (such a naive mistake...)

Now they ask this:

You must complete a new application form. Do not re-submit the enclosed application form and on-line physical presence calculator (printout from the Internet) or the form How to Calculate Physical Presence (CIT 0407). Your new form and physical presence calculator must be received in our office within 90 days of the date on which it is signed and dated.

So I think that I have to resubmit both a new application form and physical presence calculator (and of course sign them ). My question is: 1) once I generate a new one, do I sign them with the date of today? (I guess yes), and 2) for the physical presence, should I update it with the days until today? (I guess yes too).

I did it online, so I didn't have to worry about any of this. I suggest you do the same.

I couldn't (family of 4 with 2 minors). And now it is only my application which is incomplete, so not sure whether withdrawing all applications and re-applying online will be easier than just submitting what they ask now

just checked tracker - it said last updated on April 7, 2023 , BG complete on Apr 5, 2023

Thank you!!!

The minors need to do it on paper, but the adults can do it online. You don't need to all apply together.
If you sent them in separate envelopes, and got AOR for everyone else, you can apply online.
If you sent it in the same envelop, they should have returned all applications.

Well, we applied together and they returned only mine..

together as in you put everything in the same envelope or different envelopes? Did you get AOR for others?

 

[josh_1982]

yes, together as all in the same enveloppe...and no, no AORs for others

That's strange.
OK then they are saying fill in a new application basically, use new dates.
