Prohibitions is usually marked as completed once they verify the physical presence and languages.

You can expect 4-5 months wait once the ECAS status shows decision made.

1. They'll verify the physical presence component.
2. There isn't a standard timeline. As a general ballpark figure, it is best to assume it'll take 3 to 5 months for oath notification from when the test status was set to "Completed". Good luck!

I took the test on April 7, which is almost 5 months now.. I hope to hear something soon.

Hi!

My tracker got updated on August 16th.
Prohibitions Completed August 16th.
The only thing that's pending is Citizenship Oath
I'm from Vancouver.
Does anyone know how long does it take for the final part? Will I have to wait around a month for them to give me a Citizenship oath date?

Thank you!

How long it took for you to update the Prohibition? I m also from Vancouver. My Background updated on August 17,21 and fingerprint sent on July 24,21.

It got updated together with the language and physical presence 1 month ( and 1 week) after our test got validated. We were not asked to submit fingerprints though.

Something very strange happened that I cant resist sharing.
Received second fingerprint request (first once completed in Mar 2020) on Aug 17, 2021. Had my fingerprinting done yesterday (Aug 19) evening.
Today when I checked the status, it says Fingerprints received on Aug 18. Same for my wife too.
Not sure what happened here.

Too good to be true, actually. How can they receive our fingerprints on Aug 18 when we had them done on Aug 19? But I am not complaining
