Thanks for the update. Any insight into which month you applied for citizenship will help. I took the test in first week of Feb, but Language , physical presence , prohibitions are still in progress. Test has been marked complete.

My interview is on next Thursday and I just found out I made a mistake on my physical presence by 1 day. Hope this won't be a big issue. Passport stamps aren't clear and hard to read so I miscalculated it by 1 day.

That’s why you should have extra days more to the 1095 days. If you had that then don’t worry. Mistakes do happens. It’s all good.

I sent both web form and email to Kitchener office about this. I still meet the requirement. Just need to deduct one day and now it's 1100 days.

Citizenship test status has been updated to Completed on Feb 25th. After that no communication. Still "Physical presence", "Language skills" and "Prohibitions" showing in-progress. Any idea how long it might take?

Mine got updated a day after my test marked completed. Waiting for 7 weeks now for oath update. I dont think there is a way to know how long it takes . I believe it's case by case. All the best.
