Today they requested my fingerprints and it's from Vancouver office. I didn't understand why it's Vancouver. I am in ON?
Most fingerprints request are sent from Vancouver irrespective of your local processing office. A few of them get from Sydney when it is sent very soon after AOR. And most Quebec folks get it from Montreal. Other than these, everyone else gets from Vancouver and is about 4-5 weeks process end to end.

Type: Online application
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1099.5
Application: Solo (Status is married but filed for self, spouse had applied for spousal PR based on my PR)
Application Submitted: July 5
AOR: July 15
Test Window: Sept 13-Oct 12
BG Complete: Sept 5
Test Completed (no changes/updates on portal yet): Oct 5

How long does the portal take to update? I'm having second thoughts - mostly out of nervousness - as I was silently reading few of the questions to myself (didn't say aloud, just moving my lips faintly) out of habit. Would that arouse unnecessary suspicion or cause the test results to be invalid?

They take between 2-10 business days depending upon the office and officer. Do you know your processing office? You can find it from the test invite PDF, contact us section email address.

And don't worry about the silent reading, it is perfectly fine.

You can respond to the test invitation email you received, asking for an update on your test completion status.
I am super thrilled today :) I have been anxious and posting on this thread about the tracker not updating my citizenship test as completed even after 2 weeks. Tomorrow would be 3 weeks after passing the test.
Today, the tracker was updated, and it shows not only test complete, but also LPP!! Here is my timeline:
Office: Scarborough
Date applied: July 1
AOR: July 16
Background marked completed on tracker: September 5 (not sure of this date)
Test window: September 13 to October 12
Passed the test: September 15
Test + LPP marked complete on tracker: October 5

So, incase anyone is stressing about test not getting marked complete on tracker, hang on and give them some more time. Thanks once again to this community for letting us share our experiences and support one another and especially @hssrp

Hi,
During citizenship test i have used my PR card, but PR card doesn't have signature. in the invitation letter they have mentioned to use either PR card or some other government issued photo id. i have tried to use Drivers license but it was reflecting light a lot and ended up using PR Card. Just wondering are they gonna reject my test results and btw i have scored 19.
