should be at the same time.

I happened to check ECAS after a while yesterday and it was showing decision made. The tracker still shows in progress for prohibitions physical presence and language.

It’s still in progress

I think you should see an update about the background check. I believe the BG check is before the test, although some people on this forum had it after the test. Good luck.

I contacted my MP's office to check on the status of my online application. The only new information was that it is flagged for an agent to begin working on it by November 11. That is a goal and not a date certain.
I take it as a glimmer of hope the online applications will see activity in early November.
EDIT: My tracker had a ghost update today, Oct 21st.

*might have accidentally submitted yesterday's physical presence calculator instead of the updated one I did today. Keeping my fingers crossed that I uploaded the right one though.

Got a ghost update today. No email. Just logged in and saw that my application was last updated October 25th and it said "New update". No other changes, everything still "In progress" Fingers crossed.

This morning I opened my profile again and they are requesting my fingerprints now. But once again no e-mail. So I have citizenship test and fingerprints request and haven’t received email for none of them. Is this normal?

I got my test notification as well but the date says Oct 28 so I assume the email will come then.

It can take up to 3 days to get email for fingerprints.

And for tests in some cases they don't send the email until the morning of the test window start. Even if you don't get an invite it doesn't seem to matter. All the instructions are readily availble on the test website and the link will start working at midnight Eastern Time on the test window start date.
