Hello guys,

Is it possible to have Citizenship test and background check completed and have prohibition, Language skills, and physical presence still "in progress" I thought all these would have been checked before sending out citizenship test email. And how soon will these three change to completed after passing the citizenship test?

My citizenship test has been updated to complete but the rest are still in progress.....when is it likely to get ceremony mail?

Thank you for your response

Yes, that seems to be the recent trend. They seem to get people to do the test in parallel to speed up the overall process. Based on other updates, physical presence will get updated first (in under a month) and then within a few days Language Skills are set to complete. In certain cases, DM comes soon after.

I was going to apply online and then read how slow it was compared to paper, so I then did paper.
