This is entirely my opinion, I could be wrong:
Best not to do anything without the email.
IRCC appears to be planning and allocating specific time windows for these steps.
Once you get the email, you'll also get the confirmation that tells you where RCMP needs to send your fingerprint results.
where did you receive the fingerprint request from?

Nothing after AOR. I called IRCC last week. The agent was kind but had no answer to the reason for no action after AOR. Not sure what else I should do. I would appreciate any recommendation. Thank you

You should order GCMS notes.

Did you get a ghost update at least? I am like you, nothing at all yet, but I did get a couple of ghost updates, which tells me at least someone touched my file?

I agree you could try ordering GCMS notes, but I personally just think unfortunately some of us will be left waiting longer than others…

Hello everyone,
here is my timeline:

Citizenship Application submitted (Single, Online): Oct 13th 2021
AOR Received: Jan 10th 2022
BG in Progress: Jan 10th 2022
Ghost Update: June 22nd
Test invite on the tracker: June 23rd
Test completed: July 25th
In Progress:
* Language Skills
* Background Verification
* Physical Presence
* Prohibitions

I was wondering what would be the next step. No fp requested so far. I am afraid that my application would go down the rabbit hole again.

I really don’t know how it all works. I received two ghost updates then email from CPC Sydney for Fingerprint ( nothing updated on tracker) and then 2 more ghost updates consecutively.

Most of applicants receive fingerprints from Vancouver followed by test invite, I really don’t know why I received from CPC Sydney so it means my file has not been transferred to local office as of yet.

I'm a very similar timeline to you (except no 'Ghost' Email) - see my timeline below.

I am unsure if not getting a 'Ghost' Email is a 'good' or a 'bad' thing? Can anyone answer this question?
