I’m not sure if there’s an official thread for the Sydney IRCC citizenship office, but looking to connect with others who are being processed here. Please share timeline, updates, road-blocks etc. They seem to be extremely slow, here’s my timeline:
Applied online: June 3rd, 2022 single applicant
AOR: June 21st
Test invite: Jan 24th (Scarborough)
Test completed: January 30th
….. no updates since then. Ordered gcms notes and it just says my LPP was assigned there

Hi there,
Our Primary office is Sydney
Secondary office is Calgary
Last time I called the agent, I was told that LPP hasn't started and that it hasn't been transfered to Calgary yet - that we are within the processing timeline.
I wonder if all files get transfered to Sydney for LPP or just in the cases of people who's primary office is Sydney. We haven't received any GU, our tracker just says 'waiting on you, submit additional information though we provided everything.

Assigned to RC8090. No updates since Test was taken Feb 9th. Still waiting on LPP. AOR Oct 21. Online application.
From my reading, Sydney office completes LPP with 5-6 months after test. So I’m hopeful to see movement by July. I have stopped checking the tracker. Figured I’ll get an email when it’s time for oath. No need to stress myself with IRCC’s incompetence.

I think we would have been better off applying in Jan 2023 or even Feb. We would have had oath's by now!

I’ve stopped checking too. I was hoping to go to Europe this summer with my Canadian passport, but I guess now I’ll hope for a winter vacation instead. Good luck!

Hi, please find my timeline below. GCMS notes say my LPP are assigned to Sydney (RC8090). Last actual update (not ghost) was January 2023.

Online applicant from Vancouver here. My background got delayed. First I got test invitation from Vancouver office. Then my background completed after 8months from test by Sydney office. Each time I reached out the news I heard was my file is with Sydney office. Earlier this month my LPP also got completed. Still at Sydney. So I am assuming for people who gets there background delayed than test Sydney will be processing their rest of the application too. Local office (Vancouver) will only do the test. Now I am wondering from where I’d be getting the oath invite. Cause last I spoke it still assigned to Sydney even after all turned green except Oath. Any similar experiences? Anybody whose everything except test for processed in Sydney but got the oath from local office?

Anyone here who has got their GCMS notes mentioning a due of 2024/01/08 for their LPP?
I applied in November and its crazy how my due date would be Jan 2024 unless they look at your AOR!!
It still doesn't make sense at all!

yes my Lpp says due date dec 2023 i have no idea
primary office scarborough
but lpp assigned to rc 8090
Unfortunately the majority of files are assigned to Sydney for LPP completion. But the same Sydney office that is slow for us, sails through the newer applications.

Hey guys, my primary office is Sydney. I applied in March 2023 and my test was completed in the first week of June. Currently, I have LPP in progress.
I got my GCMS notes, and the due dates for LPP are 2024/03/11. Does this mean 11 March or 3 November?
Also, what are your dates?

Doesn’t matter, dates generated by the system and they don’t mean anything.
