No update so far. Thinking of applying for gcms notes to understand where the application is.
Getting frustrated to check every day for no update.

It could take 3-4 months from I read in this forum depending on the office processing your application. Some of them could take even more time.

New update today! Everything completed except for OATH ceremony

Vancouver and the prairies are pretty fast these days.

Hello, I'm not sure which office is in charge. My Citizenship test letter came from WestCitizenship...and I live in Calgary.
I never followed up.

No, I did not. I had one ghost update before the test notification in July.

Today September 21st, everything else is Completed other than OATH.

How long it is taking to get OATH invite these days ? Few weeks / Few months ? Any idea specially for Montreal office.

We finally had our Zoom oath taking today. I couldn’t help but cry singing O Canada as a Canadian for the 1st time.

Give it perhaps another month for them to give you a notice to appear for an oath taking which they will schedule for the following month. Congrats!
