Apparently clearing LPP is the same as decision made.

Thanks

One thing that I am unable to comprehend is why Canada doesn't have clear and transparent access to your travel information (leave/enter Canada history)

In the USA, you can access your I-94 with your travel history.
I94 - Official Website (dhs.gov)

You can request information from Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) in Canada. However, it takes 67 years to get it, and it will delay your Citizenship processing time.

Does anyone know why?

It took 5 days for the certificate to be available?

Anyone from Scarborough office had any luck? Took my test 29th March, no further update.

there was only one lady who was handling the forms, the same person who directed the oath ceremony, but she did say that if we want it urgently we can email her and she will send it quick. I didn't need that. The Ircc portal says it will take 2 - 5 business days, which considering the weekend mine came right in time.

Send a webform. I did and received the test invite.

Hi Afunks, what did you state on your webform and how long did it take to receive a response? Hope to hear back from you soon. Also, did you receive a response before receiving your test invite or after?

They think people have Excel or journal skills.

This office and Mississauga are focusing on giving LPP and oath for 2022 however other offices like Vancouver and Montreal are working harder to finalize both 2022 and 2023

I agree with you , and guess what some March and April applicants are waiting for LPP now , I really want to see the weird system that IRCC have

Which number should I call to know the office that is processing my application? I called (888) 242-2100, but it's not connecting me to any agent.

Hey, that’s the correct number but the lines are always busy. The only real chance one has to connecting with them is 8am EST

I tried to call them all day yesterday and could not find a rep to talk.
