Seems to be at least a few days. 7-10 days is what I've seen noted in some other threads. You can have a look at the December applicants in the 2022 citizenship doc, several of whom also started their tests recently: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...VcJH9nEA2u2GOhfpUZOckOWmN0/edit#gid=566701841
I'm also impatiently waiting for mine to update since I took the test on March 10th.
I love seeing others get their backgrounds done and talking about test invites!
But as a paper applicant who just got AOR, this whole process has me feeling like I’m swimming through syrup already. Grade A, 100% pure Canadian maple syrup. I feel like I’m doing so much and so much is happening but progress is slow going and almost immeasurable right now, but forward is forward no matter the pace I guess.
Crossing off the days until the next step for me.
How do you all deal with the waiting? I find it so difficult!

Well, we have this "support group"
But I hear you! Waiting can be exhausting, especially when we compare application progress to others. The only thing that I can advise is for you to focus on things that you CAN control. This application process is out of your control. Your physical and mental health is something that you CAN and MUST control. Worrying while waiting won't do you any good, and I understand that it is easier said than done but try to focus on some other things you can control and bring you joy.One practical piece of advice that I can give - spend less time on this forum and Google sheet tracker
Good things come to those who wait Good luck to you!
Could some one share any good resources for practicing tests apart from 'Discover Canada'?Seems to be at least a few days. 7-10 days is what I've seen noted in some other threads.

My sis watched this 2x sped up and did practice Q's on Apna Toronto.. without reading discover Canada and got 18/20 (this is not advice)

Just got off the phone with IRCC for a different enquiry and asked them about my citizenship application since I was already there. Apparently background checks have 2 stages: Security and Criminality
seems like I passed security and criminality is still in process :O so I guess background check completion is imminent and so is my test date. Fingers crossed

Hmmm...Interesting insight on security and criminality. It explains a couple of ghost updates before the background item changes to "completed."Just got off the phone with IRCC for a different enquiry and asked them about my citizenship application since I was already there.

Typically all background checks with IRCC have these two stages, along with something called “Information Sharing” which I believe is the different agencies in Canada sharing their findings to come to a final decision on the check.
