Got a ghost update today. No email. Just logged in and saw that my application was last updated October 25th and it said "New update". No other changes, everything still "In progress" Fingers crossed.
Same, its the weirdest update ever. I saw an update this morning Oct 26th and it shows 1 new update in front of AOR Received Apr 6th

How do I upload an image?

This happened to me as well, and something like 2 days later I went back there and the actual updates were there. Don't worry. Check again in a few days.

Hey, congratulations! I have a question, did you let the immigration know that you are back in Canada? I'm asking because I also took my test from outside Canada and I wasn't sure if I need to tell them that I'm back ...

Applied online from Toronto on March 18 2022, AOR 09 April 2022. BG completed 24 Oct 2022 and GU 26 October 2022 (no clue what 26 Oct update is). Any idea if its test invitation? Some people are also being asked for biometrics?

Most probably is the BG check. May be FP request.

If your BG is complete they won't ask for FP... I would say start preparing for test

Happy for you, congrats. What update did you get? Why do you need to upload an image?
That's the thing, there was a "ghost update". Although it said "new update" in front of the row where it said Apr 06: application filed, which is when I received my AOR.

I wanted to post that. It looked silly.

If you want to tell them you're back and you're available to take oath anytime, you can always do that especially of you feel that's what's holding you back. You can email your office/call the help center or submit a webform although submitting a webform is going to be the slowest of all.
