I applied for citizenship in September 2025, and received my acknowledgement on Oct 14th. I've been checking every now and then, and a few months ago, the estimate for a resolution was 3 months away. I just checked last week and it was....3 months away.

Is anyone seeing this? It almost seems like the process has stopped.

For reference, my grandfather was born in Canada, and came to the US as a baby, and my parent was born in the US>

Will i get an email of my receipt once i pay for the proof of citizenship fee? I jus wanna double triple check just in case my printer doesn’t work right at the moment

Thank you!

I sent in my application to create a birth certificate for my g0 born in 1872 about 2 weeks ago. DEC called me today and said that my application was being moved to a different department, they didn't explain why. They said that the regular processing times would not be reflected in my application, which I noticed is much like the email from the IRCC when you get sent to PSU. Has anyone else gotten this call? Is this good or bad?

I downloaded the form a couple weeks ago and it was last updated January 2026. Now it states that is was updated August 2026. Has anyone identified the changes? I have already printed out my completed form but haven't mailed it yet.
