My family status has not moved since March 20 (when test status was updated). LPP still shows pending. GTA area. Not sure if anything is of concern here. Any ideas?

Based on the current trends, you should be able to. I know people who applied in December and January too have similar timelines or have already taken the oath.

I hope so. However, many applicants from Montreal who finished their LPP in January, Feb, and March are still waiting for the oath.

Almost 5 weeks now, no updates after citizenship test. Anyone in the same boat?
