Can be weeks, can be months, hard to say...
My account got updated for oath ceremony 1 week after LPP got completed. Now, I just have to wait for the invitation email that usually comes 1-2 weeks before the oath ceremony. FYI, my oath ceremony is scheduled for September 20.

I saw cases when people got their LPP completed in March and still waiting for the next update.
Congrats on your ceremony, what's your timeline?

Hello there,

I have completed my citizenship test on Nov 2022. There was not updates after except for a ghost update on March 2. Is this normal? Anyone in the same situation? Application shows that Citizenship test and background citizenship completed. Rest as in progress. Anyway i can get latest updates? or email/number to check on the latest status

You can call IRCC - https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/posts/10523591/
Also you can take the help of your MP office as you would have breached the 18 month processing ETA.

AOR - April 2022
It will be 18 months soon in a week. Will be reaching out to MP in first week of Sept and hopefully a human officer can take the file from a bot officer and start working on it.
It is so frustrating and incompetence Grade A on part of IRCC - people applying in 2023 getting their applications approved already so fast, FIFO is in garbage they have their own project management experiment going on here, I doubt they even have enough officers to process 2-3 million a year various categories of applications from various locations.

Same. I applied March 2022. AOR April 2022. Still waiting for LPP. I am so frustrated by the process, seeing the nonsensical approach there seems to be to completing files. I too plan to reach out to my MP in September.

I am curious - what is your processing office? Your signature says location in Vancouver but is Vancouver also your processing office? We are almost identical to the day!

April applicant. Same nonsense. Tried every trick in the book here to get file moving. Missed Justin Trudeau yesterday when he was in my neighborhood. Could've just asked him to move the file along. Oath same day probably.
