Which office is treating your wife application pls

I think there is misconception about "which office" - I think only the test is assigned to a local office based on volume / availability - once the BG (run by RCMP) and test are done it goes back to Sydney, NS queue for LPP and next steps. This is what I have learned.

Let me know if anyone else has any thoughts.

LPP may be centralized. However, oath scheduling seems to be location based. I may be wrong as do not have any major stats to back it. Just that I noticed several Montreal people waiting longer for the oath than the rest.

We also did our tests on 7 March. Still showing as "waiting on you" and LPP still not done.

I do NOT like waiting, so this is pretty frustrating!

Hey, did you get your test results updated on tracker?

Nope. Just checked. Still saying "waiting on you."

in your case above, do you know if LPP was done by Vancouver? what I have learned is that most if not all files go to Vancouver for LPP - do you have an idea?

Hey, when they request Fingerprints does it show in the tracker?
I got test invite before background check finished, it has been almost a month since O passed the test, no change on background and no fingerprints request…

Some folks have mentioned FP showed on their tracker. I do not have it on my tracker. Instead for me it was an email letter. May be worth calling the Ircc if you do not get anything by end of this month.
