Me too. Same date. Still waiting for lpp in Montreal? Family application? Long history of trips? This is the case for me
Couple application. 4-5 trips.
but this isn’t case for Montreal. Everyone is waiting.
I believe Montreal would see movement in April. Let’s wait and watch.

I don’t get why the LPP are not started yet. They just hit several buttons to send three requests to somewhere and let others to process them and wait for the results. How slow their reactions are.

I’ve seen in some threads people with AOR in december and office Montreal already cleared their lpp and some even got their oath invitation. But these were single applicants with no travel history. Some people say, that if you have a travel history, your lpp is assigned to Sydney for processing which can take 4-6 months to process them. Wait and see !!

There 5 people on the same boat, including you and myself.

LPP completed on Mar 2nd from Niagara Falls IRCC and the decision is made. But in tracker Ceremony Not Started :-(

Sent an email to NGF IRCC and got a reply stating “You can expect to be invited to Oath Ceremony 3-4 months from the time of your application is approved. Your application was approved on Mar 2nd 2024“

I received an email today on how to download the citizenship certificate, but no updates to the tracker. Any idea why?
