My LPP and test completed on Oct 27 and no updates/No GUs since then.
Strangely, I have not received a request for fingerprints yet.
Did that happen to anyone else here?

They will not ask for Fingerprints if your background check has been completed. It is part of the criminality check that they ask for fingerprints.

LPP when does it start ? is it after test completion or is it after both test + back ground verification ? anyone any idea on this.
I’m curious to know as well. I’m 90% sure that’s the case . Background+ test then LPP starts or completes

based on the above link ; below info , but not sure ;
Scarborough office is the slowest of all offices because its the busiest of all offices and they do uneven load distribution because local offices handle oath ceremonies locally so most GTA applications go to Scarborough office, as the volume of applications from GTA is so high compared to any other city in the country, it slows down the process significantly compared to other offices.

On top of that Scarborough has this weird rule that they don't show LPP complete till they can assign you a Oath ceremony date. Hence even if your LPP is complete, they wont show it on tracker and make you wait till have an Oath date available then they show LPP complete and Oath date is given in the next 2-5 days.

Also they do batching, so if they have 200 oath seats available but have 600 applications LPP completed, they will chose 200 applications move them to LPP complete and give them Oath date and the remaining 400 even if they from the same timeline and have LPP completed doesn't show progress till they have the next slot available for Oath.

Similar timeline. Looks like there is no invitation for oath ceremony in last 2-3 weeks. I saw only a couple of people got invitation.
Maybe they are waiting to make a group of 100+ applicant to invite for an oath. Any other idea?

Okay, Thank you.
I did submit latest PCC from my home country as I was out of Canada for more than 180 days during COVID. Maybe that was enough.
Just hoping oath update comes soon.

No idea how they manage it exactly but makes sense that they invite people in batches for oath.

We took the test on October 30, and there haven't been any updates since then. I'm so nervous. Is anyone else in the same boat?
