It's encouraging to see some applicants are already in the final stages. We can assume that several others, who are not on these forums, have similar timelines. On the other hand, there are those among us, pre-C6 for whom processing is very slow... discouraging for some. Be encouraged!

I have questions for people who live in Toronto/Scarborough and per ECAS was sent a letter on Jan 11 that their test was scheduled for Jan 31 at 11.45AM...
have you received your official letter by postal mail yet?
what is the location?

thanks!
Hi,
I received an email with an attached pdf file as the official invite to attend the test, although my ecas says they sent a letter via postal mail but i think that's probably a generic template they use. You haven't received any email?

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-0002-application-canadian-citizenship-under-subsection-5-1-adults-18-years-older.html#CIT0002E4

Language requirement
    1. All applicants 18-54 years of age MUST submit proof that demonstrates adequate knowledge of English or French (even if your first language is English or French). If you are 18-54 years of age and unable to demonstrate that you have the necessary English or French language ability due to a medical condition, this requirement may be waived. You must submit supporting evidence with your application.

      If you do not have proof of language proficiency or the language level needed, you can take a government-funded language program to help you improve your language skills to get a certificate at a level of CLB/NCLC 4.

      Canadian Language Benchmark/Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens level 4 is considered “Basic Proficiency” and means an individual can:
      • take part in short, everyday conversations about common topics
      • understand simple instructions, questions and directions
      • use basic grammar, including simple structures and tenses and show that you know enough common words and phrases to answer questions and express yourself

Call center It didn't help
Web form it didn't help
Sending a letter to CPC , they received the letter I sent on Thursday That's why I am giving them a time until Friday.

Hello,

I've applied for myself and my minor kid at the same time (27th Oct). I got my AOR on 04th Jan and the application went to IP on 12th Jan. I had not received AOR for my kid at that point. So, I've submitted the web form explaining the situation. I got the AOR for my kid's application on 19th Jan and in ECAS I see that it went to IP on 20th Jan.

Is this the usual way of how the family applications are processed i.e. each application of a same family with their own dates? I was always under the impression that even though the AOR emails are a few hours/days apart they're all effective same date.
