Hey I have a similar timeline as you, waiting for ceremony, in Vancouver .
 
Anyone still waiting with this similar timeline?
Me. Ever since my test, I have been religiously checking my tracker every day.

After I got my GCMS notes, I've decided to check once every week. GCMS notes might be a good place for you to start as well.

If it says "Location: Grant Review Ready PM03" like mine, you're in it for the long haul. I see folks with Apr/May AORs still waiting for LPP with PM03.

  • Any application in which criminality is suspected must only be assessed and decided upon by a Level-2 delegated decision maker (a PM-03) who has received training and passed a delegation exam related to how to assess, process and/or refer cases with suspected criminality. Level-2 delegated decision makers are equipped to perform additional assessments and to use enhanced analysis techniques for cases determined to require additional scrutiny.

How long did it take to receive GCMS notes?
 
That my application is waiting to be assigned to a PM03 for review and approval.

For those with LPP completed, you're just waiting for a slot for oath. That could take anywhere from 10 days to even 3 months based on where you're located. GCMS notes won't help you at this point.
yes agreed. The time differences are based on city you are living in. Fingers crossed. thanks

Is "decision made" a separate stage in the citizenship application after LPP is cleared? I see some people have listed the decision made date on the tracker, but not sure how we will get that information.

Still waiting for Oath scheduling and hence want some clarity on the process. Oath "not started" yet.

Funny enough, I was playing around with an AI chatbot, and it suggested that the oath ceremony would be scheduled by the "visa processing office" and have little to do with the applicant's city of residence. So it means it's still stuck with the notorious Vancouver office. Fingers crossed. I wish we had a tracker where we could track oath timelines by visa processing office.
