I believe the term "citizenship hearing" is different from "interview." Based on my understanding and confirmation from the group, an interview is a step that may occur before the completion of a background check. On the other hand, a hearing takes place prior to the finalization of (LPP) process.

It's important to note that not everyone will necessarily go through both an interview and a hearing. The decision to conduct these steps is at the discretion of the officers involved in your case, who may require further clarification or information.
I have an interview scheduled. But Background is marked as complete in tracker.

Got it. It was already in sheet - Sep 24. Don't remember if I updated it. I changed it to Sep 20. If the letter comes first, then that is the date of decision made, correct?
Thats correct, but in most cases (99%) the letter comes after this date mentioned in the tracker. Sometimes the tracker might be delayed in updating, but when it finally updates, it is always backdated.

Hi guys and @hssrp

Thanks for great insights here. I am new here and here is my timeline -

Type: Online application
Location: Quebec city
Physical Presence Days: 1096 (6 trips abroad)
Application: Single/Family(number of family members) : Single
Application sent: June 28th
Delivered: June 28th
AOR: July 15th
Test invite: Aug 28th (MTL office)
Background: Sept 3rd
Test window: Sept 6th - Oct 6th
Test completed : Sept 6th
Test updated on tracker: Sept. 9th
LPP: Sept 19th (updated on tracker on 21st)
Citizenship Ceremony: In-progress


I still haven't received any oath letter or email after this from Montreal office. I see SCR office has already sent out oath letters for those with LPP completed last week. I am worried about my application as I have a trip next month and wanted to complete oath asap. Is this delay normal?

Also, any idea on what I should ask exactly from the IRCC agent on my application delay?

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone who was requested fingerprints had any updates on LPP? Seems like those who were requested fingerprints are being facing serious delays.

Hello,

Just received fingerprint request for both of my applicaitons from Vancouver office.

Can someone please guide for the fastest way to get these done. Local police or through private agencies?

Do they send them directly?

What is the process or timeline after this?

TIA

I got them requested from Vancouver on Aug 23rd and I took them on the 26th, they haven’t received yet & still BG on progress.

@hssrp told me that they are slow and takes 4-5 weeks. Hopefully I get news this or next week.
