May 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[nibharad]

Folks,

A lot of us are seeing the status as "In-progress" in the new tracker tool as soon as we get the AOR. Is this status same as the ECAS "In-process" people are used to here? Can some experts chime in?

Anyone?

For those who updated ECAS to InProgress. Did you get an email that it moved to InProgress? My ECAS shows application rcvd and the CIC tracker shows application in progress.

How did you get ECAS to work for your online application?

No. In Process status is fom Old ECAS. This generally means the background process is completed and the file is transferred to the local office. Again, this is based on the observations on this forum, this may or may not be true for all.

The tracker (spreadsheet) is based on old ECAS, So using the In Progress from New ECAS messes up the stats (as they do not mean the same thing).

Thanks for sharing these links.

So, it sounds like the "In-progress" status in the new tracker means nothing until we see a change in status for one of those six sections.

Hi everyone,

I got my AOR on 7th September, and started seeing the "In Progress" status on 8th September (today). I am accessing the tracker through the https://cst-ssc.apps.cic.gc.ca/en website.

So based on my understanding for online applicants, I should not be using the old ECAS to keep track of my citizenship application status? I should be using the new tracker?

shoulnot they mentioned that on ECAS? I logged in ECAS by my UCI (PR number) and it just mentioned received on May 7th? I am really confused, Specially I thought I cannot login ECAS without getting AOR.

Can we sign up to ECAS without receiving AOR?

by PR number, do you mean the ID No on the front of the card, or the number on the back of the card?
