I have a relatively new application for citizenship. My application was filed(IRCC sent confirmation) on March 22, 2022, and today I've got my background completed, yet all others are still in progress. Wondering how long it would take from the background check completed to an invitation for the test. I know it's a waiting game and the process takes more than a year (officially 27 months) but it was kind of weird to complete a background check so soon. I know people who are waiting long times just to complete their bg status completed. Is it normal or I am just too lucky to complete it earlier. ( I know its too early to have a celebration yet :) )

Some people who applied on paper have their background verificationd completed by CPC-Sydney within days. The rest is the important shit and delays depending on how lazy your local office is.

That's nice, but everything else will still take around 12 months, there are many people waiting for their tests first. Probably less than the expected 27 now, it wasn't this much for me.
Good luck! Almost there :)
