What, if any, were the differences for your language proof? Curious if that is holding some of us up.
If you're asking difference between my application and my wife's when it comes to proof of language skills: None. We both took the same language test and obviously passed.

I got a ghost update today March 31st. Anyone else got it? I was wondering if it is an update to my application or just another system update!

Yes same, had oath on March 28. Sent the oath form, received 2 Do Not Reply emails. Status still in progress.
Any idea/data around how many days it might take for the tracker to update?
There were some candidates who took oath on March 2 and had their tracker updated to complete/file closed on March 7, so I presume it should be updated no longer than a week, also some of them are yet to receive their certificates

My LPP is still in progress. The test was marked complete on Dec 15. My application is straight forward as they come. There is no reason for this to be a non routine application. Anyone has any insight why it could be taking so long? I applied with 1750 days, have completed my education from here. I ordered the ATIP notes and could not see anything that would delay the application.

I think we just being “lucky”. Mine too, only about 10days out of Canada for short vacation. But got stuck for 4 months already after test completed without any update.

Same here. The test was marked completed on Dec 15, no progress since then, even not background completed or fingerprints requested. Really frustrated! I have ordered GCMS notes too, but not answers yet.

Very similar situation. Test completed in December. Then they asked for scans of the passport. After that, radio silence. Funnily enough, my wife became citizen today - we applied together and passed the test on the same date and have the exact same travel and address history. IRCC is one big Gong Show - saying that based on my personal experience of having dealt with them for work permit, PR and now citizenship, but also based on my client's experiences who are applying for work permits and PRs. Any private business operating in that manner would go bankrupt. I betcha more than half of IRCC employees wouldn't survive in a private company for more than a year with their work ethics and amateur conduct.
Exactly the same as you

after passport scans in February it’s been radio silence….

Hello, finally got an update about my lost application since May 6 2022. After calling to IRCC in 2 days I received an email from them and they are put my application on hold. Here is a message:
Your application for Canadian citizenship is incomplete. We cannot start processing your application for the following reasons:
Physical Presence
In our records, we cannot confirm your time in Canada before you became a permanent resident (PR).”

I’m happy and sad in one moment. So I should fix some issues and resubmit it and wait again. Btw I don’t know why they sent me this message because I did everything right when I applied in May 6 last year… Nothing was wrong in my old application I’m sure on 100%.
Aloe things changed in online application so I have to update my digital photo, a new passport etc.
But anyway it’s better than nothing…

Maybe you should check your physical presence calculator once more to be sure. Did you claim time for a Work permit, Study permit, or any other temporary residence? And do you have some proof that you were in the country during those times? If they let you submit the documents to prove your time then you should add as much information as possible. I wonder why they just kept quiet instead of informing you so you can present evidence.

same here, passport scan submitted in January
In my case Passport Scan was in December then the next update was interview on March 7, then surprisingly everything was completed really quickly after that. You can look at my signature. I'm sure you are not too far from your next step.

Anyone here who had their oath virtually with IRCC Calgary office on March 30, 2023? Trying to figure out by when should we see oath ceremony marked as completed on the tracker. It still shows as in progress on the tracker.

When you attended the ceremony they must have told you to wait for 2 to 4 weeks for the certificate. Why do you care to see the tracker any more?
