BG checks is not related to the citizenship test. If your BG checks is IP, then it is likely that your criminality or security clearance is still pending.

We are in similar situation. I completed my test in the first week of June and waiting since thn. BG check is in process. I think its stuck in security. I have already submitted all scanned pages of my passport so didn’t get any request to submit them. My office is Vancouver. Its taking more time bcz I have 8 international trips to account for. I calculated very carefully and kept a buffer of more than 3 weeks. Going crazy with the wait lol. May 2020 applicant.

Hi, I have a question for you. Does your application timeline shows FP required, FP received dates when you use the new tracker tool. Mine doesn’t show anything as the BG check is still in progress. Do they get updated on the same day? Thank you.

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada. To proceed with the online test from your location outside Canada you can access the link in the test invitation that was previously emailed to you within the specified time period. important: System changes underway - When you sign in to the online test, you will need to go through a privacy notice. One of the questions will ask if you are physically present in Canada while taking the citizenship test. Though we acknowledge you may be located outside Canada, please check the box. This is necessary to complete the test until system changes can be implemented. Good luck on your citizenship test!

Atleast you have received test invite. You have done everything from your side. Now it's IRCC's turn.
