- Start date
Congratulations! Your New Year starts with a bang! I'm one of the January 2023 applicants and got my Citizenship in September 2023. I often visit this forum to check on other Jan applicants. Glad to know you are all reaching the final destination finally. Congrats @northern sunshine too. @Anonyref any update from your side?
That's awesome. Happy to see one of us crossing the finish line.
Hello! Congrats on the end of your journeys once again.
Unfortunately no update for me since last year (test and bg verification). Radio silence since april 18th. Had a ghost update which was a system update on oct 27 but that is all. Still waiting for LPP to be completed!
Do
Dont get too bogged down. I’ve been on the other side for literally most of last year. I kept ordering GCMS notes, calling IRcc for updates and even reached out to the MP. There isn’t much to all this, but it gave me hope and I can only recommend that you don’t lose your hope too. The anticipation of looking at the tracker every morning was worth it when it all finally turned green. Some applications take longer, just how IRCC works. Good luck and stay positive buddy! It’ll come soonHello! Congrats on the end of your journeys once again.

Update:
Got my oath invite! Virtual ceremony, not what I expected, but no complaints. Quick question: Can my wife and I join the same Zoom call, or should we log in separately since our invites are separate? Thanks!
Yes - you can join in the same zoom. Use a comma between your Seat nos. e.g. 129,130 as your Display name
Hi!
Please include my entry to the Jan 2023 sheet:
Type: Online application
Location: Vancouver
Physical Presence Days:1410
Application: Single
Application sent: Dec 21,2022
Delivered: Dec 21, 2022
AOR: Jan 11, 2023
Background verification completed: Feb 23, 2023
Scheduled to take a citizenship test: March 6, 2023
Citizenship test status updated to completed: March 30, 2023
Nothing but 2 ghost updates since then. I have requested note some my applications thought IRCC on Jan 1, 2024.
My partner and I got engaged in the meantime and would really like to tie the knot but I'm afraid it might make my application complex and take even longer. I really need to visit my family back home who I haven't seen in 3 years and it's just so heartbreaking to wait for so long while other people get it so fast
Hey guys!
I've noticed folks have mentioned checking their application status on ECAS which I haven't heard of before. I tried checking mine using UCI/application number/PR card number and got nothing. No account found. Does anybody know what that means? I haven't been able to find much definitive answers online.
