HI Everyone. I see very few messages on the forum now I think most of the applicants from April 2022 have reached their final step.
But to my friends who are still stuck with LPP from Montreal office, I am also on the same boat:
I was asked for Fingerprints so I think my case is non-routine like others mentioned in the forum.
My timeline is:
Method: Online
Location: Montreal
Application Sent: April 1, 2022
AOR: April 11, 2022
Citizenship test invite: Nov 7, 2022 [Montreal office sent the test invite while BG was in-progress)
Citizenship test taken: Nov 14, 2022
Citizenship test complete: December 2, 2022
Fingerprint Request: January 6, 2023; [This fingerprint request was no where in the tracking portal]
Fingerprint given at the RCMP center on: Jan 9, 2023
Background complete: March 9, 2023
No update since then
Language, Physical Presence and Prohibitions: still in-progress
Oath: Not Started
If there is anyone in the group who gave Fingerprints and still waiting for LPP please reply to this thread.
Some interesting things:
i) Upon contacting IRCC call center: after several atttemps I could only find rude agents who are least bothered to answer. No concern No empathy at all. Even after requesting the call center agent to provide more info the agents are just stuck with the script of "current processing time is 22 months".
*When I contacted them after some time in April 2022, the call center agent informed me that my application is currently under security check. I asked the agent that my Tracking portal shows BG is complete then he did not say. He just said no point of calling them as the info that I see in the portal is same for them. My concern is the BG shows complete in tracking portal but call center agent says security is still in progress. I don't understand what kind of security check is this if BG is complete.
Is there any checking involved in LPP? Even after BG is complete?
I submitted a webform requesting for info - no response. I tried reaching out to MP in my area. The MP office was NOT helpful at all in Montreal. Even before contacting iRCC the MP office staff rejected my request stating "your timeline is completely normal 14 months is nothing to worry about". Generally, people have to wait for 2-3 years but you are lucky that the current processing time is 21 months currently so you can contact us after 21 months" if I don't see any progress.
I have tried webform request, MP office, call center agent no HELP whatsoever.
People from 2023 got citizenship. I don't know what to say. I did not Travel for the last 5 years. Checking my background should not be difficult when I did not even leave for 1 day outside of Canada.
I contacted some people who gave fingerprints along with me in January in Montreal and their BG, LPP got completed during that mass update on Mar2 and Mar7.
Are there any finger print requests non-routine friends here in this group from Montreal stuck at LPP?
I am tired of checking the tracker everyday in hopes but as I have been 5 years straight without any travel absorbed lot of stress and complete demotivated nofaith with regards to the IRCC process.
They have no transparency, no empathy, no accountability, no human sentiments/emotions to keep people in limbo. Playing with their feelings and emotions. I hope the officer assigned to LPP stuck friends in the group are not assigned to an office who is inactive like some PR report investigation in Montreal.
If I leave Montreal and move to Toronto/Ottawa/Vancouver/Regina will there be any help to my application. Considering my residential address change? New city new hope?
It was a long post friends but please share your thoughts and kindly reply to this thread.
