LPP completed on May 11, 2023 (tracker updated on May 13). ECAS - Decision Made.

Question: My minor application wasn't updated. Everything for the kid is in progress. I was told that once the parent gets LPP complete, the minor's application is automatically granted. Any ideas why it's not reflected in the tracker?

I had same doubts, but I found out that the application of a minor will be automatically granted once their parent's citizenship application is approved. Until then, no updates will be displayed.

Thank you! What point signifies parent's citizenship application approval? I thought it's when you see "Decision Made" on ECAS.

Just wondering do people still get in person oath taking invitation these days? or everything is virtual?

The completion of the oath ceremony typically signifies the approval of a citizenship application. However, to confirm this information with certainty, consult someone who has more experience in this matter. I am also in a similar situation.

Hi All, my tracker has been updated on May 13 with the Citizenship Ceremony scheduled on May 31. However, I haven't received the email with instructions yet. How long does it take to receive the email?
Thanks

Hi All, I have been scheduled to attend the Citizenship ceremony on May 31 on the profile and still waiting to receive the email. However, I have a work trip scheduled from June 3 - June 17. I have the following options now.
- Request to postpone the ceremony to a date after June 17
- Attend the ceremony and inform that I have a work trip until June 17
I am looking for your expert advice on this.

Did you receive the oath email, I am also scheduled for oath the same date but yet to get the email. My tracker updated on 11th May for citizenship ceremony "In progress".

You should get it 10 - 7 days in advance of the event. If you don't get it by then, reach out to IRCC.

Today in the evening, I see this notice in my tracker... A day late:

I was on call with 1888-xxx-2100 number. This above message is a system update. Also when I asked for my application update - the person did not even check my document status but she said - your application is still within 21 months timeline. What you see on the portal/website is the same status. we dont have anything new. If your application is beyond 21 months then we can talk.
I find Niagara Falls office is very slow

Calling is a waste of time if you get such agents.
