Waiting for ceremony to start.. still in progress
Just got a random survey for ceremony 2 days ago though..
I got the same survey on the 17th and nothing since then.
There are posts on Reddit about people who got the oath scheduled after completing the survey and one person called and found out they were scheduled as well.
I called this afternoon and was told that they don't see anything related to the survey in my file. I'll post my complete timeline later this evening.

Yes you are right. I don't know bud. I just answered that i would choose a virtual ceremony coz of my work schedule and the way the questions were like are you able to use a computer and operate webcam this and that. Should have said no i got window 95 lol.
But I don't know about if survey has anything to do with ceremony. I am guessing it takes more time or something or may be they still planning on ceremony dates and all. But yeah i didn't call them yet. Just hoping it comes soon

I completed it on the 18th and haven't heard anything since then.

Yes, I think my processing office is Scarborough! I opted for online during application but haven't got any further information yet.

I'm getting ready to enter the bugging stage. Webforms, phone calls and I have to figure out when to order the GCMS notes.

So I called
No update on the Prohibitions as of yet. Me and my husband applied a separate application. He has an interview next week
Does it have to do anything with his interview me waiting for Prohibitions?
Thoughts
His test and background were completed
But not APP
