Thanks, I emailed per this advise today. It's so frustrating that the test is still not updated in the tracker even after 16 days Any idea how long they take to respond to the email ? Also, what is the phone number to contact them about this?

They take 2-3 days to respond to emails.

The number to call IRCC is : 888-242-2100

Hey guys, here is the timeline thus far for a family of 3 in Hamilton.

Application: July 19
AOR: July 29
Test invite: Sept 21 (Oct4-Nov2)
Background completion: Sept 26

I have few queries
1. Are fingerprints requested specifically for background check? Now that my background check is done, I won’t be asked for fingerprints? Asking bcoz I am travelling international for a month after my Citizenship test.

2. Do I have to let IRCC know that I am away for a month? I assume after test process is gonna take 2-3 months until oath ceremony and I will be back by then. Is there any case they would be needing me in Canada physically?

3. while my and spouse’s background checks are done, my kid’s background check is still I. Progress. Is this normal?
