Thank you for the response.
My tracker got updated today, yes, but it shows as below.
Note it shows oct 30, but in tracker there was nothing till 1 nov.
I have yet to receive the email. Further my background check was completed but for my parter it never was, though we both received test invite on the same date.
Hope this helps.
if you have the link for the test invite page (if its open to all and checks in by other credentials) can you please send

I wrote my citizenship test over the noon hour (Pacific Time) on Monday (Oct. 30th), the first day of the test window I was provided. Two questions:

1. I received the test invite email before the tracker updated. I actually received 3 different email notices for it on Oct. 27th. The tracker updated October 28th with one update saying Oct. 26 -- Citizenship Test In Progress and one saying October 30th -- you've been scheduled to take the test. Is it typical for the you've been scheduled update to list the first day of the window on the tracker list even if the day is in the future compared to when the tracker actually updated?

2. Does the tracker continue to have the waiting for you messaging at top regarding the test even though it's been taken, at least until someone at IRCC reviews it and marks it as complete and that update is noted in the lower hand list of updates?

Thank you!

Do they usually confirm receipt of the additional documents? I too had a request, I replied to their email and also sent original documents by mail. Didn’t receive any confirmations.

No GU, the last update was on the 27th, I check my tracker 2-4 times daily, so I am certain.

Good to know
I had 3 GU the last few days, oct 27,31 and nov 1st. So far only BG complete on oct 30th ,maybe test will change for in progress for me tomorrow

Hello. I have two updates on my tracker. The first one saying that I will receive an invitation for my test and the second one that they sent a letter for my fingerprint. So far, I have not received any of those. Besides, I took my fingerprints four years ago and I thought they were still valid. Also, my wife applied with me and had her fingerprints taken with me four years ago and on her tracker it says that her background is complete. Any inputs on this situation? Thanks.

They don't ask everyone for fingerprint but it happen quite often. Nothing to be worried about.

Hey Folks need some insights.
We applied as a family of 2.
We both have got test invites.
My BG is complete, but my parter's BG is still in -progress for about 1 week.
Is this normal? I saw in some other posts (https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...t-background-check-in-progress.780688/page-76) that people have been waiting for BG clearance for 6 months or so.

Hello all!

I have been scheduled to take the citizenship test between Nov 3 - Nov 23. I will be travelling during this time and not be in the country. Am I able to take this test outside of Canada or would I need to request a reschedule?

Thanks!

Hi, when did you get your AOR? I’m curious because I am also from St. Catharines. Thanks.
