[Amirdk82]

Will update you on Tuesday, hopefully my journey has come to an END

Finally some good news:
On the citizenship tracker, I received an update saying that my wife and I have been scheduled to take the citizenship test online between February 16, 2023, and March 9, 2023.

As regards mandamus:
At this point, we decided to wait because of the citizenship test invitation.
Short info: I don't know the costs of mandamus since we will get pro bono legal assistance from the law firm of a friend of mine who's a lawyer. His colleague from the same firm in NL will do it for us. But like I said, for now, we decided to wait a while.

Hello admin, would you please update the tracker info according to my recent update (test invitation on February 3, 2023)? Plus, my background date doesn't have the year. Could you please add the year info as well? I appreciate that. Thanks.

Wow finally some movement, congrats! But almost 2.5 years to get a test invite?! Outrageous.

Sorry to hear you weren't part of the pilot that gets to take the oath right after the interview, but you should get an update soon.

I noticed that my wife hasn't been invited to the test! We checked her citizenship tracker and figured out that there is no improvement regarding her citizenship test at all. My tracker showed a test scheduled. I also received a test email today. It is pathetic how IRCC works guys. It is a nightmare. Has anyone had a similar experience? Or have you heard from anyone who has the same problem? Please please answer! I feel so down!

It's odd that all family applicants are not receiving test invite at the same time. You can drop an email to the test email address and ask about your wife's test.

Does it happen only in-person oath ceremony or also in online ceremony?

Good news for me, after my background was set to in progress again after it was completed. I got an update today and now is back to completed again.
What I did, once it was changed to in progress, i went and i took my FP (without new request from IRCC) and I submitted. and after one month it is now completed. so I think it worked. Now the only one left for me is prohibitions is in progress. Does anyone know an estimate how long it may take?

In-person only. There is a pilot program going on where some people who are asked to an in-person interview are given the option to take an in-person oath immediately afterwards.
