Accidentally kept on VPN while doing the citizenship test

Hello,

I realized after submitting the test online that I had the work VPN (US) turned on while I was doing the test (which I passed).
I am in Canada though and was able to do the test without issues. I'm just worried they may see the IP address recorded as from US, if they do any of these kind of checks.

Wanted to hear if anyone had suggestions on how to proceed. Should I just wait to see an update on my tracker? Or should I notify via Web form?
