I got a finger print request July 5 too and submitted thesame day. Have you gotten any updates on whether they have received finger print or if your Background check has been completed?
We only got the mail for fingerprints without any status showed on the tracker. Assumed it would be done as there was a GU after two weeks as well as test invitations afterwards. BG still in progress.

Background complete June 30th.

But I only saw this today. It's weird somehow. I'm definitely checking every day twice...
Background only went to completed today. But in the status updates it mentions June 30th. So I guess I'm going with that date.

Hi everyone,
I’m planning to travel outside Canada after taking the test. Is it required to be present within the country after taking the test (inside Canada) and during the LPP phase ?
I don’t want the travel outside Canada to slow down my processing of LPP and Oath. I’m guessing during LPP the CBSA travel history is retrieved to check for the physical presence , even though the eligibility for the citizenship will be established, it’ll even indicate that I’m outside Canada currently. How will that change the processing timelines?
Anyone gone through this? I would like to know thoughts from the members here….

What was your test window date? I read somewhere here that they mark the rest as completed after the test window... but from your timeline, it shows you were scheduled for the test June 2nd and it was marked completed June 5. Please put more highlight on this. Thanks.

I dont think it should be a problem as people write the test outside Canada. You just have to be in the country for the oath ceremony
