paper applicants can see that. generally if the only step left in the tracker is citizenship ceremony then it is assumed decision has been made.

Are there any March 2021 paper applicants here who didn’t get test invite yet? I’ve only had BC completed last Sept and nothing else afterwards. Thanks.

Has anyone applied for the passport through mail service? Can you tell me the timeline please? I send my passport application by mail on 7th Feb and was received in Passport Office Quebec on 8th Feb. But no movement post that. I have tried calling up the passport call center and they just have standard reply that it is in progress. It's been 42 days now which seems like way longer than their processing time of 20 business days. Anyone else in same boat?

Hi, I'm a paper based applicant and my processing office is Scarborough. My application is routine. I received my last update on September 30 2021 when my test was completed but since then not a single update.

Someone said on this forum that one can contact their local MP to know the status of their application. Can someone explain me the process? Does contacting MP really give some answers about your application and also does it in anyway speed up the processing time?

It sometimes help. In my case (Mississauga office), status was changed to DM 2 days after I sent email to MP. But in case of my spouse (Scarborough office), no update happened. Just search email address of your MP & send email asking progress of application. They will send a form, fill it & send it back.

Hi All, my wife and I completed the test on January 3rd and Citizenship activity was updated in Tracker on January 5th. On January 12, everything was complete for me except Citizenship ceremony. BG for my wife was completed on February 15th but Prohibitions still In Progress for her since that date. Our application is in Hamilton office. Has anyone faced a similar situation? Is the Hamilton office relatively slower than others?
