January 2022 - Citizenship Applications

Help needed

Hey guys
What is the best number to contact an officer ? They asked me for adinional information and my tracker says to check my email. I checked my email and junk folder and I don’t see anything.

I know about the web but it will take about a month (I contacted before and it took a month)

Much appreciated

There were some erroneous updates on the new tracker asking for addition info. I believe someone here contacted the call center and was told it was an incorrect update.

You can try contacting them: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/june-2021-citizenship-applicants.733273/post-10152217

I don't think you can call the individual officer processing your case but you can email your office with a screenshot of the tracker and asking you haven't received a corresponding email.

If you're an online applicant at/near test stage, it could also be the usual passport request.

Also if you're seeing the tracker updated very recently like yesterday or today it might also be worth waiting for a day or two to see if you get the email.

Thank you

Iceman55 thanks you for the information much appreciated.

I managed to talked to an officer and yes it was a glitch in the system. He told to ignore the tracker for now and everything is good on their side.

That's fast. Did you provide any urgent processing reason or this was normal processing?

No update after Sep 22, 2022. I never had to do my biometrics yet but confused on how the background check is completed without fingerprints.

Is anybody else in the same boat? Not sure why so much delays with my application.

Not everyone gets a request for fingerprint. It is normal. But regarding the timeline, we all know now, it is so random that no words can provide the solace you are looking for. I really wish IRCC was more compassionate around this with applicants and be a bit more transparent and responsible.

Another thing I noticed under you citizenship application status, it says Updated: Oct07, 2022. Could that be ghost update? However I didn't receive anything in the email
