Hmm ... so it doesn't mean anything. My BG was completed on May 19 (I still have 3 days!) but on the ECAS page it says "We started processing your application on May 16, 2022", that might be the reason for the update...
March 2022 - citizenship applications
- Thread starter chaudri
- Start date
it is also my case. Ecas from Decision made change to In Process after background check expired. Because you haven't had decision made, you will see it changed on ECAS. All items on tracker are still green.
FINALLY! My Citizenship ceremony has been changed to in progess!! I've been scheduled for May 26th.

See, be grateful for Niagara office. Congrats
Thank you.
In the end, I suppose no news wasn't good news, but some news was good news
Good luck to you as well

Congrats - thats great that you finally have a date. Now hopefully the rest of us at NGF are also not far behind
Thank you, yes all of you get your oath quickly too. The citizenship process sucks. It's way too long post covid (for most people) and seems very disorganized. They're using LIFO instead of FIFO.
