My test result and background have been completed Nov 26, and there is no update after that :-(
Isn't the standard duration 1.5 months from Test/BG to LPP complete ?
Hang in there, just a few more days to go.

Mine completed Test and BG on Nov. 26.
I had one ghost update on December 14. And nothing else.
Let's keep in touch!
This thing is driving me crazy, I can't wait to end this thing :(

I got a request to provide my fingerprints within 30 days (RCMP). However, I am not in Canada and am a student in the UK as of now. Is it mandatory to come back to Canada of providing the prints or can I do it in the UK as well?

The documentation I received says that fingerprints must be taken electronically in Canada - doesn’t look like there is an option to complete them outside of Canada. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/become-canadian-citizen/apply/submit-fingerprints.html

Yep, also confirmed here: https://rcmp.ca/en/criminal-records/criminal-record-checks/private-fingerprinting-companies-accredited-rcmp
"There are no private fingerprinting companies accredited by the RCMP outside of Canada."

There are Canadian firm which will do it for you eventhough you not in Canada.

For e.g. https://www.canadianfingerprints.com/

Check "INTERNATIONAL FINGERPRINTING SERVICES FOR PEOPLE LIVING ABROAD" section

Also for UK check -
https://www.international.gc.ca/country-pays/united_kingdom-royaume_uni/london-londres-info.aspx?lang=eng

Section - Criminal record check with fingerprints

Over 3 months has passed since my test and BG completed and no update. Not even a ghost update, don’t think IRCC knows the word “standard “ in their process.
Is your office Vancouver office? Same thing here, but since November 26. I had one ghost update on December 14, nothing changed. Nothing so far.
