July 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

[vicky mangat]

Anyone with paper application got Test invite? Also, do we need to change residential address when we move if the mailing address has not changed?

I have an update.
For the longest time I couldn't access ecas... then after my background check was completed, I could finally log in but it only mentioned the application was received and nothing regarding AOR, background check.. etc. Today I logged in and I can see there's a new update and that my application is being processed. Perhaps this is a good sign that my test invite is on the way?

Citizenship

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on July 16, 2021.

I'd take that info with a grain of salt. The poster's history shows they made the following post on Nov 19th. However, their timeline on the August thread shows they submitted the application on Aug 15th. The question then is which info is correct? Surely, the same person that's about to submit their application in November couldn't have submitted the same application in August.

Dear all,

Im about to apply Citizenship. I could count days which I spent in Canada as a visitor? Will this delay the processing of my application? Please give me advice.

Thanks.

Yeah that’s true. According the post dated Nov 19,2021 the person was about to submit application

Spouse's timeline, the person still hasn't applied. That clears up everything

I have confirmation that my package was delievered in July 2021
but I have STILL not received an AOR number or any contact from Immigration.
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?
