To check the status of your Canadian citizenship application, you have two primary options:
1. Use the Client Application Status (CAS) Tool:
- Visit the Client Application Status page.
- Ensure that the personal information you enter, such as your date and place of birth, matches exactly with the details on your application and official documents. IRCC
2. Link Your Application to an IRCC Secure Account:
- Create or sign in to your IRCC secure account.
- Once logged in, under “View the applications you submitted,” select “Add (link) your application to your account to check your status.” Government of Canada
- Enter your application details exactly as they appear on your submitted documents.
- After linking, you can receive updates and messages about your application through this account. Government of Canada
Important Considerations:
- Processing Time: There may be a delay between when your application is received and when its status becomes available online. You will receive an acknowledgment of receipt (AOR) once processing begins. IRCC
- Information Accuracy: Ensure all information entered matches your application to avoid issues accessing your status. If you experience difficulties, consult the IRCC Help Centre for assistance.
Regularly checking your application status through these official channels will keep you informed about any updates or additional requirements.
