LPP completed

Always great to see one of us cross the finishing line.

I wonder is your CSIS showing that any security screening under process or just no security screening requested

Hey

I wanted to share the latest information from my CSIS report:

Request was received & processed on 4/13/23
Status is Completed
Client: 5000 Citizenship (routine)
Priority: P2
CTC Required: N
Based on this, it seems like my security process is completed. However, like many others, I find myself stuck on the LPP. Let's hope for a resolution soon!

Hey there! It looks like your file is ready for review by officers—awesome news! PM01 ready is a positive sign, and having Ottawa as the primary office is even better than Sydney. You know how things can get stuck there (RC-8090, right?). Don't stress too much; once the application starts moving, it should move pretty quickly. Hang in there, and best of luck with the process!

Thank you! yeah - one step closer! I know you have been in similar boat as my partner - just hang in there!

When did you apply for your CSIS notes? I tried applying in the last couple of days, but I think the system is bugged. Whenever I get the email with the link and I clicked on the link, it goes back to the page to ask me which agency I want to enquire information for, then to the request email link page again. The loop just doesn't end.

Do you mean ECAS or the tracker?

I mean the ECAS system. I have the tracker, but I cannot get on the ECAS

Ya, I can't get on my file on ECAS too, only on the tracker

It is only available to paper applicants, you applied online thus you have no access to ECAS.

I wrote to my primary office (Mississauga) for the status update and got this response in return:

Good Day,

This email is in response to the email below.

Your file has been granted for citizenship and is currently in queue to be scheduled for a citizenship ceremony. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide a timeline for ceremony. Please continue to monitor your inbox and junk mail for your invitation to this event.

For future updates on your application or change of address, please contact our Client Support Centre at 1-888-242-2100 or visit our website at www.cic.gc.ca.

Thank you,
Citizenship Team

Does this imply that the decision has been made?

Thanks in advance for the insights!

What email did you use? I'm also with Mississauga.

I had my interview on Thursday and was asked the same questions. The interviewer told me on the spot that she’s approving my application and I should expect an update in my LPP status soon. As of today, everything’s
Completed except citizenship ceremony. Currently waiting for oath invite.

Quick Update. : I received my oath invite today, one week after my citizenship interview. My husband’s application is stuck since April no update in his LPP. We applied at the same time.

Did they say why the husband's application became non-routine?

Hey, I applied end of September and received the report back in under 30 days. Must be a glitch, try different browsers if that helps.

Some people get upset for some reason when you use non-routine without proof.....not me, I still think any application getting stuck in BG or LPP without any updates is just up to IRCC's (or better, Sydney's) arbitrary decisions and I think the whole routine or non-routine thing is arbitrary at best.
