Vancouver office, the Test result was updated yesterday to Complete. I think it has to be past your test window for them to update your ECAS. My test window was from Jan 9 - Jan 30. The update history shows Jan 31st, but my ECAS was updated yesterday Feb 2.

Not really true. I have seen people's ecas getting updated to "Decision made" even though their trackers still show in progress. I feel they gonna start fading out ECAS slowing for citizenship applications as these 2 tools are so disconnected from each other.

Got Ghost Update today on both my and spouse applications. Hoping to see background check complete in coming days
Promptly got an update 24 hrs after the Ghost Update - Background verifications completed for both me and my spouse!
Wait for test invite now begins - Do we get an email first with test link or do we wait for any update/message with test link in the online portal? (ours is online application)

For me the tracker got updated first and the email comes when you get closer to your test window date.

Hi does anyone know how long rescheduling takes based on your or other people's experience. I had a job interview which I found out having a citizenship means better chances. I have couple of weeks to update that information.
So in a limbo when it will be rescheduled . I don't see any information on how long it takes anywhere in the forum.
Worse even if I wanted to attend the in person ceremony on Monday it is not possible as all of us are down with flu today ! So definitely not risking others.

Hey! I don't have the experience but one of my known had to reschedule their oath due to some personal issue and she had to wait 6 months to get another date. Don't wanna scare you but yea the wait time may be longer if you are looking to reschedule. There was this forum on Facebook that I was checking and this guy had to wait 1 year to get a new date. Try if you can make some arrangements to go to the oath ceremony if you have a job situation that requires citizenship.

Oh my lord. I have sent in all relevant documents relating to my son (special needs ) and also pertaining to the job. I hope I don’t fall in that queue

I just feel the officer you were assigned was pretty quick in processing your file, so could be that they may put you in the right queue.
