Because I've been waking up early, I have noticed my last few updates showing up exactly at 5 AM mountain time.

Anyone else with a similar timeline? Though I am not expecting any updates until the new year.

Is anyone from Primary Office: Vancouver waiting for LPP to be completed? SEP AORs?

Is anyone from Primary Office: Vancouver waiting for LPP to be completed? SEP AORs?

Yes, I have a Vancouver office handling my application. LPP is still pending. Other offices have shown expedited processing for other applicants with the same timeline.

Let's see when the Vancouver office processes the rest of the application. Good luck.

Yes I was wondering about it too. Applicants with same/similar timeline on the east coast have files reaching their oath dates already, so was just wondering why is it slow for us Good luck to you as well!
