I have a question. If the person is unemployed, what should I mention for "name of employer, school, other" in question 11. What would be the contact name, phone and email address? Can I keep it blank ?
For the time I was not working I put unemployed and NA for the details like phone address email.

If you would like to add my husband's application to the spreadsheet, his information is as follows:

Application received - November 3, 2017
AOR sent - December 29, 2017
Processing started - January 16, 2018
City of Residence - Oshawa, ON

We are looking forward to receiving his invitation soon. He is outside the age limit for the test, so that's one less thing to worry about. ;)

What a Valentine's gift I received today!! Test invite for March 9! Praise God! Keep the faith folks...we are getting there!
up to the spreadsheet, your office is Vancouver. I guess you are not the first one today who gets a test letter today from Vancouver. Good luck.

Added to the sheet,
When did you send his application and how many physical presence days he has?

Does anyone know why some people do test and oath on the same day? That would be nice if we all got that. lol
From what I've noticed, those people live in a remote location with no CPC or regional itinerant service. Also, I've only ever seen Calgary and Edmonton do test and oath on the same day.

Oh I see, I guess it's for people who live in rural Alberta. Makes sense.

100% gonna come up, they might not even release your fingerprints until you deal with the warrant. Also, if you have a warrant, CIC knows about it because they do a CPIC check before they decide whether to ask for fingerprints of not.

Hi, I just received an email with the test invite letter (dated today, Feb14) to appear on March 14 "to demonstrate your knowledge of Canada and knowledge of English or French". (So far no update at ECAS)

First November applicant from Vancouver, at least the fist one to report it.

My wife received hers as well, I'm around line 93 in the spreadsheet, please update it, thanks!
congratulations

I have another question. The person's eligibility period is from 2013-02-11 to 2018-02-11 and landed Canada in 2015-01-16. In online presence calculator, does he need to mention any travels outside of home country between 2013-02-11 and 2015-1-16?

First of all, keep in mind that you need 1095 days of physical presence in Canada after the landing to be eligible for Canadian citizenship.

Yes, you need to tell about all of your trips during the whole eligibility period (so the online calculator counts the exact number of days you have spent in Canada). As well as you need to mention that you were out of Canada before landing. Be accurate when you answer the online calculator's questions.
In general, most of the questions in the application cover the whole eligibility period, just one question which asks for Police Record Check if you were absence for more than 183 days last 4 years. Good luck

For those of us still waiting for AOR, please check ECAS with different ID identifier criteria.

I have not received any updates after my application was received on November 3rd. I was getting nervous about not receiving AOR. ECAS did not have my profile either.

Today I entered a differen identifier type (PR number vs. Client ID). My profile appeared and I see an invitation for test! I have not received any emails or mails!

I wanted let you know just in case.

What? I've never heard of this happening before! Did you put an email address on your application?

But that is quite miraculous nonetheless! Major congratulations!
