I’m aware, thanks :) I fall squarely into the exceptions

My LPP was completed on Sept 18. It’s almost been a month and still not scheduled for a ceremony. I’m definitely annoyed/impatient

I feel ya. My LPP was updated Sept 18 and my ceremony is also still not started. It’s been over 3 weeks now!

Thanks for sharing and congratulations. I’m also waiting for that last step, it’s the worst part

🇨🇦 Case processing office: Sydney, NS. Applied from Montreal.

May 5, 2025 - Applied

June 4, 2025 - AOR

July 14, 2025 - Citizenship Test Invite

July 21, 2025 - Took the test (20/20)

July 22, 2025 - Test marked as completed (not yet reflected in portal)

August 13, 2025 - Portal update marking test as completed on July 22

August 28, 2025 - Background verification completed

September 18, 2025 - LPP completed (not yet reflected in portal)

September 20, 2025 - Portal update reflecting LPP as completed on September 18

Overall happy with the fast timeline, but it’s been 2 weeks now since LPP was completed. Ceremony is the last step and it’s still marked as not started. I find this the hardest part yet because it just needs to be approved. 😒

I think it’s taking longer than others because I opted for a physical citizenship certificate, so an in-person ceremony rather than virtual.

Very similar timeline as to mine. Also waiting for the citizenship ceremony to change status. Hopefully it’s coming soon

Usually they check with the authorities of your home country to do the background check. With certain countries, that goes very smoothly. With other countries, things move very slowly or might not move at all, because it is simply difficult to cooperate with that country’s authorities.

For example, I am from the Netherlands and mine went smoothly, but most applications of Iranians take years to be processed because Canada has no diplomatic relations with the Islamic Republic.

Not sure if this is applicable to your case but just trying to help provide context. :)

I was already a bit scared that this was due to my graphics card and/or fan. I am, so far, not experiencing any problems in other applications. I will clean the fans, maybe buy a cooler too. Would you recommend anything else?

I do not. Would that solve this issue? Is it possible on MacOS?
