6+ weeks are gone since LPP completion (Dec 14). When reached out to IRCC Agent via phone, email everyone told me I've been added to the queue for scheduling oath. I see people whose LPP was completed in Jan or late Dec are done with their ceremony. Not sure how this queue works, ugh

Mississauga office?

Don’t forget that each case has to be reviewed and approved by the assessor/judge and each case is individual, so don’t look at other cases and timelines it’s all relative and might not apply to you

Mississauga office?

Yep, Mississauga

My background check was completed one day after they received my fingerprint. For my wife, they didn't complete the background check, and they said that because they still try to complete the security checks; Is that normal? Does anybody have the same situation? they received the fingerprints on the 4th of January.

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

I am also Vancouver office and my LPP has been in progress since Dec 15. Additional documents were requested for physical presence on December 22 and submitted same day but there has been no progress.

Honestly, I would be a lot more relieved once my LPP is updated.
