For most of us as we are in the LPP stage, my question to all is that Can I be able to travel during this process or is it not recommended?. May be I am planning to travel in October but not sure I can do that with my current stage of LPP process

ps: Someone in this thread mentioned that the standard LPP process time is 4 months after the test date. please advise
Test to Oath can take 4 to 6 months and yes, I too have noticed that most GTA offices are taking around 4 to complete LPP. Traveling should not be an issue unless your oath happens to be around the same time, in which case, the rescheduling is a pain. Good luck :)

Congratulations! I'm glad you didn't have to wait too long for it to conclude. Tracker updated
Thank you so much @rushi.gada. And thank you for all the positivity you bring to this chat and for kindly updating the spreadsheet for everyone. I know on days I was feeling down you always kept me hopeful. I’m praying you get good news soon.

Thanks.
I got an update today in my tracker with the update to the Citizenship status to 'In Progress'. The Oath is scheduled on 21-Sep-2023. But now also I have not got any email.

Give it some time. Well it may update by Wednesday however though I’m in a similar position. My app is also paper application with minor, I only got LPP on july 17, to date my ECAS is still “in process” no decision made. I check everyday for over 1 month n it hasn’t changed to DM. Agent told me my steps are completed however parentage verification is still in process for my child n the file needs additional review from officer. So I guess I just have to continue to wait impatiently.
Just keep checking your ecas though Mayb by Wednesday you will get DM. Plz keep me posted.

Yes tracker status will say in progress until they close your file after oath. ECAS on the other hand is an older tracking system that is only used for those that apply via paper applications. That system will be the one to tell you when decision was made.
Congrats on the oath!

Congratulations dear.
@SunshineJA : How is your application going? In your earlier post, you mentioned that you have applied with minor and there are some additional checks going on with minor's information. I applied for my minor son too. I completed my oath on 10th Aug, my file was closed on 15th Aug, and my e-certificate was downloaded on 17th Aug. But my son's application is still in progress. I did not even received his oath invite, I asked to clerk during my ceremony but I was told that my son is not scheduled for ceremony yet and so cant do his registration and cut PR card. After that I tried contacting IRCC through calls and webforms but not received any proper information except saying that his application is good and no action required from my side, it will be cleared. Till date not update and still in progress. As I know, minor application should be completed same time as parent.

Thanks for checking in…. My application is at a standstill at the infamous Mississauga Office. From July 17, I recieved LPP complete however my ecas is still showing “in process” and not “Decision Made”. I phone agent last week n they say my file is complete n all but on my child’s profile it’s still in process and parentage is still under review, hence the file is waiting for final review from an officer. So yes over 5 weeks LPP, n no decision hasn’t been made.

Tick….Tock….Tick……Tock…..

What does it mean by 'Percentage is still under review' for minor?

Parentage - meaning parent background for child. Maybe if I’m related to the child or father
