Any idea how long for Oath invite after BG and LPP completion ?

My oath is scheduled 1 day after LPP completed.

Hey folks, I have prepared my citizenship application. I notice many will receive fingerprint request, can I get a RCMP fingerprint check now and include it with my application? Thanks

No you have to wait for the letter from Ircc if only they need FP from you, otherwise you don't need to worry about that..

Another question if I can, I am ready to submit citizenship application. Need to travel for work from June to early July.
Suppose I submit now, How early can one receive citizenship test? How many days do IRCC give us to complete the test?
I want to avoid receiving citizenship test request when I am abroad. Thanks.

Yes , you can do that.
But go to private fingerprinting companies not directly RCMP, then ask them yo send you the results which is valid for one year. Then submit it with your application .
You will save 20-45 days in case if they asked you later on

How much time an applicant needs to wait for his fingerprints to be received (on tracker) ?

Just as a side note... it seems that they ask fingerprints from very few applicants. I wasn't asked, for example. So, it may just be a waste of your time...

Question to all : the updates on tracker happens through out the day ? or it just happens in the morning Eastern time and there is no use to login and check through out the day ? check once in the morning and then you are done for the day !
