Exam done on 1st March... waiting on Oath Invite.

 

[dj322]

I sent my application in Oct 2017, had a request for fingerprints early January and since then nothing. I did email CIC and they advised they received my fingerprints and were continuing my application. My application is in Vancouver. Has anybody else had a bit of a wait too? I noticed other applications have moved along swiftly.

Hello, my friend is exactly in same boat. Whats email address for CIC to get confirmation that they have received my friends finger prints? We are from 7-8 of us from NL. Nobody got any test invite yet. All "In process".

 

[AnkitaD]

is there anything we can do? call or complain?

I have tried all options . Just simple answer from them . Your application still under 12 month normal processing time . Hence they can't do anything . They advised call them after 12 months

Hi all

Curious of experiences on processing times for anybody with existing dual citizenships - I imagine this could slow things down to ensure thorough reviews are done - or potentially add a FP request - or not

Any duals out there?

 

[babix]

Hi everyone, I passed the test yesterday, and the interview went OK, the officer check the stamps on the passport, and check if it is matched with what I provided in the physical presence form. But at the end he told me, they are still waiting for my background check results, which may take a 2-3 weeks or more. Is anyone still waiting for the background check after the test?

 

[lonleyplanet1995]

Hello everybody, fingerprint done today. Can anyone tell me how long it takes from fingerprint to test invite? I appreciate your reply.

it's different from one to another Application , I got test invite and FP request the same day!

 

[natk]

Has anyone's ECAS not updated with their test invite? (It's been a week since I got the test invite email.)
