July 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

[andulka]

It's the same website but I don't see “we sent AOR and discover Canada book”.

When I log in it says:
If you want to see the details of an application, click on the underlined status.

once I click it take me to a new page that says:
We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on July 16, 2021.

That's all I see on the page.

That’s weird
You should have to more steps after “We received your application”
2) we sent AOR and discover Canada book
3) we started processing your application

I have none of that that's literally all I see and some links for different application forms. It took me months after receiving the AOR to even access ecas.

Hi are you online or paper applicant?
Only paper applicants can access old ECAS
Here is the instructions how to access old ECAS
1) go to https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do
2) type your credentials to search your application ( I used UCI, date of birth and country of birth) you can use any other option instead of UCI
3) press submit button and you should be able to view your application

Since I can't see the full status of my application in ecas, I can only see when it was received, will I be able to see if I was invited to take the test through the other tracker (https://cst-ssc.apps.cic.gc.ca) ?

What is the difference between application filed date and AOR date ?

Application filed date is the date they opened your envelope and started reviewing your documents for completeness. AOR date is the date they finished checking your docs for completeness and send your letter with Application number( AOR).

I'm sure this question has been asked before but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere... Do I need to inform the IRCC if I receive a new passport? My passport expired last year and I didn't renew it. I'm planning on travelling in April/ May of next year and I'm afraid I won't get the Canadian in time for my trip. Is it better to just wait or apply for a new Passport from my home country? will I need to show my expired passport during the oath ceremony or at point during this process?
When I applied I photocopied the pages of my current/expired passport and explained why hadn't renewed it yet.

Hi,
I applied for citizenship for my mom who's is a senior.

Here's her timeline:
Type: Paper
Location: Coquitlam, BC
Physical presence: 1,567
Application: Single ( Senior 70+yrs)
Application sent: 19 July, 2021
Application delivered: 23 July, 2021
Application filed ( stated on Ecas): 3 September, 2021
AOR: 14 October, 2021
Background completed: 29 Nov, 2021

Can someone please add to the spreadsheet?

Since she's a senior, she doesn't have to do the citizenship test nor the language skill. My question is what's next for her?
