Jesus christ, this is anyone’s dream timeline. Congratulations buddy! I applied for it 8 days ago, got a reply they sent to the responsible office. My Local office is Scarborough per GCMS notes. Does this reply mean they accepted it? Did someone call from IRCC or email YOU at any point??

Thanks man, Good luck on your process too! I’ve got the same email as you “we have forwarded to the responsible office” three days after I submitted my UP request. No one form IRCC ever called me or emailed me. Though, the clerk at the ceremony confirmed because I have an approved UP, they were going to mail my certificate in two business days. That was the only time someone from IRCC confirmed it indeed.
As long as your UP request makes sense, i get a sense they will process it.

Anyone applied for UP multiple times? I did twice, but I think it didn't work again. I have a very good reason where many call centre agents agreed - I don't know why it's not being accepted. Death in family & can't get a passport & can't travel to neighboring countries with a Canadian travel document.

Are you a refugee? If so, refugees are not eligible for UP.

Its the ghost update, pretty soon your Test will be updated to Completed & you will receive an invite for Oath soon as your UP is accepted. Good luck with that.

I can't find it either. There used to be a manual that exclusively talked about refugees applying for Canadian Citizenship. What I recall on top of my head is the following:
1) Most Citizenship applications from persons living in Canada as approved refugees are treated as non-routine.
2) You are issued a Canadian travel document that is recognized by ICAO laws internationally, so you can technically travel anywhere as long as you have the required visas to enter the foreign country.
3) Refugees applicants for Canadian Citizenship are ineligible for urgent processing requests due to the level of scrutiny required during the application process.
