Mine has been like that since September 2nd. Hopefully get my ceremony invite soon... (so far not started)
I don't think it says DM...Think its just complete once LPP completed. Ceremony is the final piece of the jigsaw...
Got exactly same dates for BG and LPP, just waiting for the ceremony date now
My background check was completed on same day , August 28. No update after that.
It's been over 3 weeks now and I do see a lot of people whose LPP completed after Aug 21 getting oath invitations. It makes me wonder what the delay is. I know waiting a little longer doesn't *really* matter but I'm still just so anxious to have it all done with. Wondering how much longer it'll be.
Same, must be a lot of people waiting for LPP, August 28 BG complete was a bulk event
Same here. In my case I got an FP request though, and I sorta ... didn't do it until the last minute before deadline.
Even so, I wonder if just getting an FP request is enough to make the case non-routine (and thus can't rely on processing times anymore, officer has no incentive to work on the case any quicker, etc).
My LPP was completed on 2nd Sept and still says NOT started. I have seen many on here having oaths scheduled after me, but then on a FB site loads of people are still waiting....2 weeks, 3 weeks etc...seems to be very little reason to it..Maybe its purely down to open spots that are available in the area.
However, the LPP is the last part and assuming that hurdle is cleared it is simply the waiting game on the date of ceremony..nothing else.
Not an expert but from all that I have seen, just the FP request by itself doesnt make cases non-routine. Its what comes in their checks may do. As I have read one of the popular members on this forum often comment, the applicant themselves has the most information about their profile. Basically, do you have something in your background that may cause closer look or scrutiny and applicant themselves have the best insight into that.
I am late April AOR and my LPP isn't done yet. So what I do is often visit the May page on the tracker and when I see zero greens (columns O-R still empty) I console myself I ain't left behind.
Though from the outset I have had major delays. My AOR came through whopping 49 days after submit and I haven't seen that for anyone. April applicant with mid June AOR, so I am kinda locked in for the longer ride as well. Sometimes I dream about bad stuff and wake up and start frantically searching for mandamus discussions. My job and wife and non existent kids sometimes feel like I am lost and distant but its just the non-routine on my mind.
