I submitted my Canadian citizenship grant application on September 8, 2020 it was received by them on Sept 14, 2020.
I see they are currently processing Nov 2020 applications but I still have not received any AOR or any other email. No information for 7 months now.
What should I do? I tried calling them I can't even reach an agent. I have submitted IRCC web form with package Canada post courier receipt no response yet. Can anyone help me with anything else I can do? Thanks

Thank you for the information @Hot2Cold I checked my Client Application Status it says they have received it on Sept. 14 2020 and started the process in Feb 2021. However, I did not receive any AOR email from them. I hope they respond to my web-form with that information.

Try going through you emails again. Check the spam folder too just in case. If you want to get them on the phone you just need to keep trying.

There was an issue with AOR processing around October-December, most people didn't get AOR emails (some got AOR by mail), so don't worry. Call IRCC or send a webform to get your Application number.

If you're CAS is showing In process then don't worry too much about the AOR. You can call IRCC and ask them for your application number if ypu really want it.

Thank you for the information. What would be the next step now? Will they email me with the citizenship test request?

If your application is normal, and there are no further queries from them, then yes, you will get a test invite. When, is anyone's guess though.

You may or may not be requested for fingerprints as part of the process.

I applied in July 2021, and have confirmation that my package was delievered in July 2021
but I have STILL not received an AOR number or any contact from Immigration for testing or anything!
What should I do!??!
I applied via paper in the mail

When I call the call center no one is there to answer...
should I apply online?

Try to access ecas using your UCI, and find out if your application was received.

If the status shows in progress, you do not need to worry about AOR. Give IRCC a call, keep trying and finally you can get your application number.

Hi,

I have submitted my citizenship application in Nov 2021, But still haven't received my AOR. Tried calling IRCC several times it says always buy and now they have removed the citizenship option from IVR. I didn't even get chance to speak to a agent. @Hot2Cold tried Client Application link but it cant find my info. Can you please help and let me know how I can contact or get status? Tried sending webform twice but no reply.

I'm in the same boat. And I applied on Sep 2021. Still no AOR. I even called them and they said they can't find my application but told me if I have a submission number/receipt, my application is still somewhere. This is ridiculous! Some gets their AOR in a week and some doesn't for over a year!
