September 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[Hieratic]

FYI people...I never got an email invitation for my test (I checked spam and trash). It just showed up in my tracker. When I talked to two IRCC agents twice, they told me, yeah...that happens sometimes, and the system is glitchy. They then told me to take the test using the link, and I was able to. So, not everyone receives the email invitation for the test, which is really problematic because if I hadn't checked the tracker, I would have never known about the test, and I would have missed it. I really hope this doesn't happen with the oath invitation.

Still nothing for me. I have been checking daily. BG completed on April 8 and no test invite

I called from within Canada. I never get an option to get a callback. Just told that all agents are busy and due to high call volume they will not be able to take my call. And the call drops.

I followed the instruction from 1 member in this forum. You call, put your UCI number then select 1, 1, 4, 1, 1. I dont know if it makes any difference because there is no other option to choose though?

Btw when is your AOR?

My wife gave her test on 14th April. There is no update on the tracker as of now? Is there anyone in a similar situation?

I passed the test on april 15th, still no update on the system, it's to be expected as IRCC have 2 days off (Friday april 15th and Monday april 18th) and of course the weekend in between.
Technically they have to send updates on tests taken last week (April 10th to 15th) starting from today. But I will not be surprised if they start doing doing it next week.

Normal. Same with me. Now my BG is complete after me submitting the FP report.

can you please share how long it took them to make background completed from the date you did your FP

What's the source of that theory? (Just asking for my own knowledge - not meaning it to be a critical question)

According to the timelines of many applicants in this forum and the timelines of other applicants in a french speaking forum that I could verify. I takes 48 hours as the shortest time for a test to turn from "In progress" to "Completed".
However the biggest part of applicants got the update after 4-5 working days so that's why I said we should take in consideration the fact that IRCC agents did not verify any test from the evening of thursday April 14th until the morning of tuesday April 19th because of their days Off.
If the applicant follow carefully the instructions of the test including taking clear images of his ID and his face and there were no technical issues especially those linked to the camera as it takes a certain number pictures of the applicant while taking the test, then if the agent is satisfied after verifying the test I don't see any reason why it should take a longer time to update the test statut.
PS: You have google sheets and you also can search keywords such "Test completed" "Test update" in this forum. You could collect many helpful informations.
