Fingerprints taken a week ago, status on IRCC website says they are still "waiting on me"

On March 8th, I got an email from IRCC that I need to submit my fingerprints in order for them to continue processing my citizenship application. I went to an RCMP accredited agency (found on their website), and submitted my fingerprint on March 12. When I check my application status on IRCC, it still shows "We are waiting on you" message. I assumed fingerprints are transmitted digitally and thus the status should update withing a business day.

Has anyone been on the same boat? Am I being paranoid? I am considering to call the agency / IRCC to get a clarification.

It took me a full week for the fingerprint status to get updated. I'd recommend calling if it's not updated in a couple of days.

UPDATE: I contacted IRCC through the case specific inquiry web form. They confirmed they received the fingerprints. The system will eventually update to show my correct status.
