September 2014 Citizenship Application

[IRCANADA]

Well we are all happy about your case, but dont rub it on or face now C'mon !!! lol

I mailed in my app on 4 sep and it reached CIC on 8th as per Canada Post.
I have received in the mail today (9th Dec) an acknowledgement of receipt letter which is dated 18 November along with the study guide.

Read a lot of comments previously how CIC was supposedly sending AOR and study guides by email now.
Well that's definitely not happened in my case.

Hi IRCANADA

I did send an email to question@cic.gc.ca and also sent a case specific inquiry, with the email format that you mentioned.

I got two auto replies from question@cic.gc.ca, basically requesting to submit same information, that I already have submitted via email.

Did you get similar auto replies? I have no issue with submitting this information again but just didn't want to duplicate queries.

Kindly if you can advise on this.

Hello everyone please comment!!!!

I'm glad most of us revived their AOR by now. Any idea when we will receive notice to go for test ???? Please answer based on your knowledge . I know it's hard to tell but do what you can! Thanks!! I am thinking! It might be spring!

 

[desigirltoronto84]

Hi Alister62, How did you check eCase(file no , client id ....?). My application has also received on 12th Sep,2014 and i have no response from CIC so far.

Could you please tell me in details

Thanks

Hi,

I submitted my application on the 26th of sept. From the tracking information I know that it was received on the 29th of September.

Can someone here please advise how do I go about checking my application status on e-cas? I have tried various identification types - COPR no., PRC no. , receipt number (starts with an R... right?) - however, the system is unable to find my application. Did you guys use any other identification ?

Should call the Call centre instead ?

Secondly, when people say here that they we're advise my the CIC call centre agents to REAPPLY - does it mean that we have submit the $400 application fee again ? I am not thinking of reapplying as yet - just gathering the information.

Hi, to reapply means to resend the application. Just attach the receipt form you have and add a cover letter stating why you are sending a duplicate.

 

[Alister62]

I think you should wait for another 2-3 weeks. They may send AOR. If not by then, call the call centre and follow thier instruction. Good luck!
