Folks, my wife could not appear for her oath ceremony with her father's demise. She is now back in Canada and sent a request to CIC for a new Oath date. I see that the tracker has been updated - Oath has been reset to NOT STARTED and BG which was COMPLETED has been reset to IN PROGRESS. Anyone experienced this with BG reset ? Could this be a long wait from here on ?

Did she do FP for her BG verification?

Nope. She applied for citizenship in Oct 2022 from within Canada. She was never asked for FP.

Would be a glitch on the tracker as BG once completed does not go back to In Progress if no FP was requested.
Thanks. I just hope that's the case and the new oath date is on its way.

is it the reason BG verification is going back to In progross is because she has been abroad for more than 6 months?
I am not sure if IRCC started doing it like they need PCC for any 183+ days stay outside Canada.
But that was always before you apply for citizenship. Not after.

BG would only go back In Progress only in case of FP as its valid for 1 year.

Very surprising to me as well. And moreover, she went to India only in Jan and not been outside Canada for long for them to run a background check all over again.
