Hi! I had completed the test, and background is completed as well. I requested an urgent processing since a family member passed away and my country of origin won’t give me a passport anytime soon.

Hello everybody!
I've got a question.. hope you can help.. if your UP request is accepted how long does it typically take to get oath Ceremony date ?
Completed test on 15 Aug ( first day of window) system updated on 17 that Completed on 16 Aug. Since then nothing at all. That s 11-12 days since test.
I'm becoming a bit worried now. Does it mean my UP was not accepted. Saw some people get Ceremony date same day they completed the test.. for me been 2 weeks and no update.
