So I received my GCMS notes late last night (took about three weeks from request) and my primary office is Sydney and secondary is Scarborough. That is not great news is it? Seems to be the two slowest offices based on what I've seen on this thread. Nothing out of the ordinary on the rest of the report, app status is "In Progress-CP."

Application filed: May 16, 2023 (online)
Background verification Completed: Sept 13, 2023
Citizenship test Completed : Jul 27, 2023
LPP: In Progress
Ghost update : None

i had same result on my GCMS as well.

Hi My tracker still shows LPP in progress after my citizenship test July 26. last Ghost update was October 27. But when i login to my ecas (i am a paper applicant with minor) It shows Decision made. But no details shows apart from this

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on March 22, 2023.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on May 8, 2023.
3. We started processing your application on June 2, 2023.

Very confused now.

I just checked and I and my spouse have the similar status on tracker, LPP in progress with “Decision Made” on ECAS. But the status for my minor still shows as “In Progress” on ECAS. Also, our timeline is quite close to yours. Hopefully we get the notice soon.

Quick question?

How many days it took to receive an Oath invite those who had completed their epp. My current holding passport is in expired status.
