My background check is not complete yet, even though the fingerprints were received back in November. Anyone is a similar situation?

Only my test is completed. Everything else is in progress and the oath is not started.

My wife sent her fingerprints in to IRCC on Feb 8th. On Sept 12th they said that they have received the fingerprints and will update shortly. It's been 5 months since and nothing. Only her test is complete.

My oath is scheduled for March 2nd, my DL and Health card in BC is getting renewed and might not come by the date of ceremony, does anyone know what ID will I be asked for the Oath ceremony? As the only ID I have is my international passport from India, my old health card from Alberta expired in 2020 and my PR card, I also have my Aadhar card from India. worried not sure what to do?

My ( and spouse’s) application is stuck from the last 6+ months, Kitchener office. No movement after passing the test. Ideally per the cic website, one should be receiving invitation for oath 4-6 months after passing the test, which seems to be the case for many on this forum as well. Will ordering GCMS notes help in this situation?
