Hey! I just logged in today and it was updated May 31, 2023!! I do have a couple questions about it... I'm suddenly scheduled for a citizenship test it says between June 1 - June 22, but my prohibitions, language skills, physical presence are still in progress. Only the background check is green completed. Are they going to do a mass update soon and mark them completed or do they do the test before these steps are completed? I thought the test was the final step before the oath ceremony. It also says it is an online test and the invitation has more details. I haven't received the invitation yet, but has anyone else done the test online? Does that mean I can do it in my office at work, or do I have to go somewhere for it?

Also fingerprints, I did them for my PR but nothing has been asked about it for citizenship. Does everyone need to do fingerprints? Or do they skip it sometimes?

Sorry for the run on sentences my brain is all over the place.

Hey! Test definitely happens before LPP, so this is normal. Yes, we all gave our tests online, as long as you’re in the country, you can give it’s from anywhere within Canada. The email should come later today or tomorrow with all the instructions .: sometimes, they do complete your test before BG, don’t worry! If they want your FP, they’ll email you, or it’s probably not required. Only a small % of applicants are requested to provide finger prints. Good luck and start studying (;
