I applied in March 2022, AOR was in April. I logged back in and it says the status was updated Oct 25,2022, I am not sure if this is “ghost update” or else but anyways Background check and the Probations shows in progress.

Yes that's a ghost update. Mostly should see change in status in a day or two.

I too had applied in March and received AOR in April. There were at least two ghost updates and I now see background verification as complete. Everything else is still in progress and no test invite yet.

Hey guys, just checked my online tracker and noticed that BG is completed on Oct 20, 2022.
After this i got my first GU (after Oct 8) on Oct 21, 2022.
Applied online in March 2022.
AOR is April 19, 2022.

Can anyone please advise how long would it take to get the test invitation?

Hey guys,

I got my test invite.

I am scheduled for citizenship test between October 31, 2022 - November 21, 2022.

I am currently outside Canada. Kindly advise what should i do next? Should i tell them that i am outside Canada and will be taking the test from outside Canada? If yes, who should i get in touch with? Should I contact them via call or via web form?

Your comments and guidance is highly appreciated.

So many ghost updates for March people. Maybe they are finally dusting off the files and actually opening them up hence people getting ghost updates?

What updates did you get 2 days later?

I have a feeling I have FP request incoming.
I wish you good luck if you feel FP request incoming.
My FP results were submitted to IRCC on July 6, and since then I never get any update not even Ghost Update.

My background check got updated today to "complete". So probably the ghost update was about that.

So I am hoping that I don't get the FP request.

My wife has a paper application and she submitted her FP on Aug 8th, and they just said on Sept 12 that we received them and will look at them "shortly". Nothing since.

Congrats, "Background Check" is one big thing which is complete so no more cricket sound.
Good luck to your wife.
