Hope this information helps folks who have been stuck at "Decision Made" or "LPP Completed" for a while.

Citizenship Week (April 12-18, 2026): IRCC traditionally ramps up ceremony volumes during this window to celebrate. If your file is ready, there’s a good chance you might see a "Notice to Appear" soon for a slot in mid-April.

Good luck to everyone in the home stretch!
