- By using the e-Client Application Status service on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) web site
- By calling the CIC Call Centre in Canada - You can choose to follow the instructions to listen to their Automated Voice Request Service (AVRES) options or speak to a Call Centre representative directly (press 0 at any time).

- Applied for a permanent resident card (initial, replacement or renewal);
- Applied for a grant of Canadian citizenship; or
