May 2024 - Citizenship Applications

[Upesh07]

Sorry for the late update, received an email on July 25th to appear for citizenship test.
Already started preparing by having few practice tests online. Want to know are these questions repetitive? Is it enough if I just do the practice tests available Online?

No not everyone is asked for FP. Since your BG is already completed you will not be asked for FP (except in very rare exceptional cases when the file is pending for a long time), so you can safely forget about FP.

Since you gave the test today, the officer takes between 2-10 business days to mark the test as completed in the tracker. After that the LPP takes anywhere between 2 weeks to 2 months depending upon the office and officer. FYI, Vancouver office is generally slow for most activities.

Got it. Thank you!

I would recommend reading the book and then attempting the practice tests.

Just to be safe I have sent the proof of finger print receipt to IRCC via webform as I have seen cases where mail is delayed and IRCC seeks explanation after 30 days of time.

Yeah, thats good to send in the receipt via webform so that they are aware we completed it already.

No doubt, practice test are good and make us prepared for the test, however, the official test guide is Discover Canada. Please read it completely at least once so that you are fully prepared and ready for the test. All questions would be from Discover Canada so you would not miss anything.

Here is the link to download Discover Canada as a PDF eBook, HTML, or Audio file. If you like, you can also order a hardcopy but it will take a few weeks before you get it so PDF is your best bet.

My Tracker is showing 3 new updates, but didn't see anything different from what it has been for the past weeks.

Looks like another ghost update. Watch out for further real updates in 2 days, most likely.

How often do you guys check the tracker?

Is checking once in the morning good enough? Or do we get updates end of day as well?

Waiting on LPP like most other May applicants. Hoping to see an update soon

Once a day in the morning is good as it doesn't update during the day.

Tracker updates once a day from Tuesday to Saturday at around 5-5:30 AM EST.

Just saw this update in my tracker (We received your fingerprint information on August 8, 2024 and will review them shortly. Thank you! )

Was hoping to see background completed on the August 9th as it is for most cases, or am i mistaking?

The background usually completes the next day of Fingerprints receipt, provided the security check is already completed and only criminality is pending as the fingerprints are for Criminality check.

It appears that your security clearance is still in progress so BG is still not marked completed. Please call IRCC and ask specifically about security check and criminality check.

I will give it a day or two and then see what happens in the tracker. This is what I saw this morning.
I saw Fingerprint received on August 8 and three stars at the same time.
