Hi I am in a same situation. Is your background check completed?
 
I am in a similar situation. FP received by IRCC 1 month ago, background still in progress and this got me concerned. Everything else in progress except citizenship test completed and oath not started. I am a June/2023 applicant. I am just wondering what could cause this type of situation. Just want to get more insights from you guys if you would like to provide some information like I provide for myself below:

1. Travel history: no extensive travel. Just one trip outside canada during my eligibility period.
2. Immigration status: I came to Canada as a PR directly. No other status in canada before that.
3. Employment history: I have been working full time since I arrived in canada. One of the largest companies in my field of work. Easily verifiable if it comes to that.
4. Other information. I moved 4 different cities due to my onsite work assignments during my eligibility period and have many different addresses. ( I wonder if this caused longer background verification time). I had to provide about 11 different addresses.

FP is for people who have very common names. My family member got FP request in June and got the FP done and IRCC received it on July 5th and they are still reviewing it. Background and Prohibitions still in progress even though fingerprint results have been received in July.

For most FP requests, background check is passed one day after the FP is received by IRCC. Background not passed after FP receipt was my concern and I have seen quite a few applicants in this situation.

But anyway looks like it was my name that triggered it, I have a very common name :)
 
AFAIk - Background gets cleared the next day once fingerprints are received. If not, then most likely they are doing a security check. Get CSIS notes to confirm.

This is right. Security check clearance may take between 4 to 6 months.
 
I am looping in @dpenabill to this thread. Hoping to get their advice on this situation. I feel like applicants whose background still stays in progress even after fingerprints received by IRCC, might be stuck at security screening.
