Can someone please explain what an ICES request is? Saw this in my ATIP notes. I’m guessing it’s requested from CBSA? What does it mean for me?
Thanks.

I received my GCMS notes today and saw a note in there that “ICES requested due to low physical presence days”. Actually I applied for citizenship on 1096th day.

My question is how long will it take CBSA to send a response to Case Officer? Is it a sign that LPP will be completed soon?

I have the same question. Did you get any answer on this?

I knew this was not a good news as soon as I saw it in my GCMS notes. What's your timeline if you don't mind sharing?
Aor received on May 29th and test take July 13th. I had an interview on November and since then no updates! So disappointing. I hope to get update very soon.

I hope you get it soon man. I am 27 July AOR, Test Complete 22 August, Background Complete 5 September. Unfortunately, looking at other people timeline, I thought my application will be finalized in 4-6 months from the date of application. So in Black Friday deals, I bought Europe travel package for June 2024 for my whole family for $10,000 which is non-refundable or changeable. Now I don't think the application will be finalized before that and I will lose that money.

No, i think you should still be optimistic about your planned trip as it suddenly moves forward.
