[nate1074]

The disparity between application files is insane.

yes it is , probably depends on the area of country you live in . or who is back working

Does anyone have any idea when the updates happen? Is it all throughout the day or only in the mornings?

I don't want to keep checking every now and then..

Just check at the end of the day. That way it doesn't matter whether they happen throughout the day or only in the morning.

Thank you ,
but in all honesty , i am done chasing up the government !
i understand that its a long process, but when i know people that applied after me , and sat there test not to long ago are now just waiting for the oath ceremony. seems like i have fallen threw the cracks .
thank goodness for permeant residency. maybe when that expires in 4 yrs they will have caught up on the backlog .
thanks for all your help .
i wish everyone the best of luck getting there citizenship .

Hey guys,

I just checked ecas and saw that it was already updated to Decision Made. Checked the tracker as well and the statuses that were In Progress are now updated to Completed. It was updated July 20th. Citizenship Ceremony still shows Not Started. The case is the same for my husband as well. However, my 10 year old son’s tracker and ecas still shows In Progress, I wonder why that’s the case.
