Happens to many where the tracker update no longer happens. Is it in-person or on zoom?
Did you child also receive an invite for oath?

Hi. Yes. Each of us got email. Online. can you advise? Does my child need to attend? I can put 80, 81, 82 as seat numbers? Thank you.

Children under age 14 don’t have to attend, but are welcome to.
Yes you can put comma separated seat numbers.

Hi. I got ceremony invite today from Niagara.


But tracker is not updated. Is it normal?

Also. We are family of 3. Does my child (under 14) need to take oath with us together? Can i cut out my child’s PR card on the behalf?

thank you.

is your child's timelines similar to yours? I applied online for my kid and received AOR on May 16th and nothing after that, my husband's AOR was May 12th and is scheduled for oath on Sept 9th. Kinda worried about my kid's application

Do we need to apply for Canadian Passport first or surrender Indian Passport first? and When to apply for OCI?

Attend Oath, Get Canadian Citizenship Certificate, Apply for Canadian Passport, Receive Canadian Passport, Surrender Indian Passport, Receive Surrender Letter, Apply for OCI, Receive OCI.

AFAIK, it has to be in this order and the steps are sequential, i.e they have to be done in that order one after the other.

RCMP sent my BG check results to IRCC on 10th July. But IRCC says they haven't received anything from RCMP until now. clearly the results have been lost (may be by Canada post). Anyone know what can be done in this situation?

How much is the current waiting time (approximate) from BG completed to LPP completed for April 2023 group ? Or gap between Test Completion to LPP ? Or Test Completion to Oath invite ? Thanks for the answers in advance. I'm not able to interpret the entries in the spreadsheet.

sheet: Processing Time Comparison.
BG completed is usually about 7-10 days before test invite. But don't stick to test dates, this may be misleading. AOR-BG-LLP is a better timeline approximation,

Below are approximate earliest average processing times from my view.
BG to Test -> 2 to 4 weeks
Test to LPP -> 6 to 7 weeks
LPP to oath -> 1 to 2 weeks
