Me too. I applied on December 9, 2023. Only background checks and Tests are clear. A friend applied in May and Got a Ceremony Letter Now. I have no idea why Some take so long, and others do not.

 

[JLC123]

My last update was on April 2, when my background was completed. LPP is still in progress. Should I be worried?

Same Boat Here. You are not the only one.

This is normal. Everything is weird. No sense at all. The only thing is to wait. In my case, I have everything completed except oath, my wife still has background in progress as they asked her for fingerprints and they did not ask me for fingerprints. Why? you never know, we almost didn't leave the country for more than one month in 5 years. Now, we have to wait until they receive her fingerprints, process and complete her background. And now i see that for our kids, prohibitions and physical presence are completed and background check and language skills are in progress heheh.

Normally after the tracker is updated for an oath ceremony, how long does it take for people to receive the official invite? Are most invites these days for in-person ceremonies or for virtual ceremonies?

I am curious as I wait.

It takes almost one month from receiving fingerprints until the background check is completed and probably 3 more weeks between the time you give them to the day the tracker say that they have received them. This is almost two months more.

do you have a similar timeline too? I saw cic often update the trackers after Thursdays. Other people have their backgrounds checked and in just a few more days they have LPP completed. Not sure how long more we have to wait?

My background got completed on the April 16th and they received fingerprints on April 30th. The question is.... what was the point of making me do it
