October applicant here. Status changed to In Progress in November and no update since. Seems to be normal based on others from the spreadsheet.

Does anyone know how long the wait time is on average? My PR card expires later this Summer....

I am wondering about this also. I am traveling and need to postpone my ceremony. Have you gone through this process and does it cause any problems to the application if I request a reschedule on the oath ceremony?
my wife went through this process. She was out of the country when the invite was sent. She requested to postpone after the test date(within 30 days) and she got her invite 2-3 weeks later....no issues.

Updated. Congrats! Was your test conducted at the Scarborough CPC ?

Edit: Sheet says Hamilton.
I can recall on this.

Applicant @daman8906 lives in Brantford, ON and got FP request. As you know all FP applicants are routed to St. Clair. That is the reason 'Toronto' is listed as location for @daman8906. After FP completion/ clearance, applicant got test invite from Hamilton (close distance from Brantford). Most probably, oath for @daman8906 would also be held in Hamilton. So, we can change the location of the applicant from Toronto to Hamilton.

Also, I have not noticed, so far on the forum, St. Clair office holding test or oath for FP/QA applicants. So, may be St Clair office after processing redirects applications to geographically close visa offices.

Thanks! Makes sense. I used to think St. Clair conducts tests as well, but haven't seen them do that recently. Maybe I was mistaken ...

Excellent. Thats good to know. How did she request a reschedule. Did she write a letter to the IRCC office that took her citizenship test or did she call them or email them?

I saw the test invite added as a line to my eCas tonight but I have not received an email yet. Is that normal?
