Hello Everyone

My timeline is as under. I see most people in this thread have completed citizenship test or received the communication to complete the test. For some reason, my application is not moving. Called IRCC and obviously they won’t entertain calls till 27 months have passed. Pls do share your thoughts.

Thanks, do you know which office sent you the test invite? Just curious, my assumption is they're swapping offices these days.

Any paper applicants here who have not received a test invite yet? My BG Check completed on June 1 but no movement since then. Anyone else on the same boat?

You are not the only one. The processing is super slow for almost all the 'online' applicants. Their applications have not moved since April 25 (for March applicants). Looking at the tracker from 2021, November 2021 online applicants are seeing progress now so I am guessing at least a few more months before we see any progress.

I received an email from "DN Cit CAL Scheduling / Convocation CAL Cit RN (IRCC) ", so I assume it came from the Calgary office (from where I applied). But I am not sure how to check this

Hello,
Today my status changed to Decision Made and it appears that my Oath Ceremony will be on September 13. I don’t have any details of how to attend the ceremony and I didn’t received any email yet. All this I saw when I logged in to check for updates.

CAL is for Calgary, I believe that's the only way to tell.

Thanks again!

I'm sorry for being blunt, but what did you expect from this phone call? It's not even been 5 months since you sent your application. Apparently processing time is 27 months. No wonder wait times on the phone are ridiculously long.

What is ECAS status. Do we have a different account to track the status ?
