Hi @sentraj
Did you apply for the Canadian Citizenship Certificate under 'Urgent Processing'? If so, assuming there's still no update yet, I'm not quite sure why yours is taking longer processing time.
If I was in your shoes, I would reach out to CIC and request them to expedite my case citing the medical situation and the urgency required. This should get some response from CIC usually in about one week's time.
I'm assuming that when you applied for your citizenship certificate for urgent processing, you did, indeed, provide a good explanation letter describing the situation and citing why the application should be processed urgently, and provided them with documentary evidences to support your case for expedited (urgent) processing.
Please also bear in mind the potential impact of ongoing Canada Post strike in case they may have sent you some correspondence which might still be in the transit. But if you're following your application's progress online, this should not make much difference, thought I should mention this just in case.
So constantly chasing your application with CIC seems like the way forward for you. Hopefully this helps and apologies for the delayed reply.
