Also, after reading a lot on this forum, I just submitted an additional document though a webform for Q13 of the application. I had outlined worker visas, and citizenship, but none of my visitor visas. I just laid it all out in a document and submitted it, just in case!
Got confirmation that my document was added to my file, and a request for fingerprints today. I'll be giving them tomorrow asap!

Let us know how it goes with fingerprinting. I submitted my FP's on Aug-24. Waiting patiently for them to be received by IRCC.

Hi ! Is there anyone who is a self employed Canadian citizenship applicant? What documents do they ask us to provide during interview?
I am a freelancer housekeeper and i receive payment through e-transfers and cash and have filed my taxes.

Hi everyone, today my application got returned due to ID and language proof image issue and I sent my application again. Will I wait for another month to have my application reviewed and receive AOR? Thanks

Sorry to hear that. May I ask why they returned ? I mean size of file or quality ?

The person I talked to today said it will take 3 weeks for Vancouver to get the fingerprints! Apparently they send them by snail mail rather than electronically. I'm kind of annoyed that some of us get our applications delayed and have to pay extra fees, and some don't. Hoping she was giving me the top end of the timeline!

Thanks for sharing. I was told 2 weeks. So I think 3 weeks sounds correct.

I also followed this step by sending RCMP an email as I wasn't able to reach them on phone: https://canadianforensicservices.com/faq-items/who-to-contact-about-the-status-of-my-fingerprints-with-rcmp/

I got an auto-reply that they wouldn't be able to meet the service standard of 5 days in replying to my email :(. I guess there is nothing to do other than wait.

Hello all,
I summitted my paper based application (family with a minor kid) in mid July. Application was received on 21st July (as per tracker) and we received AOR on 31st July. Got one ghost update on 3rd August but there is a complete silence after that!
Background check, LPP in progress and test / oath not started yet. No communication in form. With all the movements I am seeing, should I be worried about this silence ? Should I contact via call center or web form ?

Nothing you can do about it. Pretty much wait n watch.
