Hi guys,

Got the following updates on ECAS.

We sent you a notice on January 31, 2018 to appear and write the citizenship test on February 14, 2018 at 10:15 AM.

Would you be able to update the spreadsheet please? I am an October applicant.

Thank you, and as always; good luck!!
Updated. Good luck!

Your prediction is appreciated!

my app delivered on October 23 and i have been on process since Dec 14th.
i will be away from Canada on a trip from Feb 14th to March 10th.

I am from Etobicoke , i have been trying to compare my timeline with others, base on the info that you kind people are sharing on October's data sheet. I am trying to built some sort of patterns to help me predict or better understand my upcoming test date. if my test date happen to fall between Feb 14 and march 10th i will be screwed big time.
can someone shed some light on this?
thanks

I think if you haven't got test invite yet, its unlikely to be before March 10th, dates are being further pushed back for people getting invites recently. But again you never know.

NO.

Most people have to wait for some weeks after DM before they get their oath invitation, and actually noone from C6 applicants in Montreal reported getting his.
Well, we'll have to wait a bit :)

It's on the sheet - 'Monthly Comparison' tab.

Copying here:

CIC: Citizenship and Immigration Canada
AOR: Acknowledgement of Receipt (email or physical mail informing you that your application has been received)
ECAS:Electronic Client Application Status (Online service through CIC where you can check your status)
IP: In Processing
DM: Decision Made
RQ: Residencey Questionairre
FP: Fingerprint Request

Nope, I'm located in the GTA. Im expecting the test invite in the next 2 months. There is no reason to worry. Estimated processing time is 12 months. It will happen when it's time.

Everyone's case is different, it is impossible to predict. Better to just keep an eye on the tracking sheet we're maintaining for averages.
GTA means?
