Based on my experience, you can expect to see BG completed and Test in progress tomorrow (fingers crossed). However each case is different.
Hi D Gupta, what happened after you submitted fingerprint on July 12. Almost 3 weeks? Thanks

Hi folks, it's been over 2 months after my application status changed to Decision Made (all fields completed except Oath Ceremony). But no Oath scheduled yet, anybody else in the same boat or any suggestions for follow ups required with IRCC ?

I actually got the tracker updated one day before the email...but in general I think they should be close to each other. For getting FPs, I actually went with an agency and sent my FPs from Europe...the agency then digitized them in Canada and sent to RCMP. Took RCMP 2 weeks to process and mail to IIRC. The whole process was super smooth for me. If you're doing it inside Canada, I can imagine it'd be even easier.

QQ - Have you done your fingerprinting yet?

I applied the same date as you, I got my AOR much later than yours (Feb 2), and I've already done my fingerprints and citizenship test.
I received fingerprint email today from CPC Sydney. Did your background check got completed after submitting fingerprints submission?

Almost everyone goes through RCMP accredited fingerprinting company. RCMP doesn't usually directly collect them.

Try commissionaires. I posted about this in the last few pages with some links. I will try to find and attention to you...

Yes, you have to go to a RCMP accredited fingerprinting company. You may try the commissionaires (link below). They have offices all over Canada. I haven't gotten FP request (yet), but used them for police certificates before.

https://commissionaires.ca/en/

I also have a pdf of the full list of RCMP accredited fingerprinting companies last updated in Feb 2022. Not sure how to upload that here.

You may also get a new list directly from RCMP by emailing: CCRTIS-SCICTR@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
