isn't ghost update happening during business hours?
If this is not the case and it updates only in the morning once, you'll be my hero, I keep checking every hour, just adds more frustration for me

I think emails can come at anytime, but agree with everyone else in terms of tracker updates. For example, I got my test invite by email at 4pm on a random weekday, but wasn't updated till 2 days later on the tracker.

Tracker updates Monday - Saturday
Email updates (test / oath invites) - Monday - Friday?

Is there a specific time the tracker gets updated or can it happen anytime of the day? I want to save myself from the stress of checking it every few hours. I am waiting on LPP completion since Dec 15th.
It is a mystery. I know some people got their LPP approved just 2 weeks after Test and Background completed. Others 3 weeks. Most people get LPP completed 4 weeks I think ( correct me if I am wrong). Some have to wait longer for some reason. I have my Test and Background approved since January 8th. No updates since then. I assume my office is Vancouver ( They requested Fingerprints). But not entirely sure about it. Once I get my LPP, I will stop to worrying about this too much. Good luck

My husband has been also waiting since the last update which was on 11th January when the Test was completed. Let's keep positive and hoping for the new update in this week (hopefully!). Good luck for both of you and my husband :)

I have received a GHOST update today (January 30th). However LPP has not been completed. I have feeling they are going to request more documents ( Maybe Interview given my extense travel history) since I got a ghost update around the same time I was requested fingerprints. Does anyone think this Ghost Update means LPP completed in the coming days? Hopefully...
