Got invitation to write citizenship test at last!
Date: Apr 13, 2018

Can someone please update the spreadsheet?

Also, does the letter pertaining oath ceremony comes in a separate email? For many, I have seen the test and oath are conducted on the same date.

Thank you!

Many congrats. I also had my test in Kitchener on March 12th and got DM next day. I am an October applicant though, so my Oath should be after yours. I am just wondering if you were able to see the Oath invitation on March 19th in your eCAS or they actually sent you an email on March 19th?

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I got decision made Next day of my Exam in Kitchener Mar 15, 2018 and I received the invitation to Oath on March 19, 2018 (in 4 days, surprisingly quick) for April, 4th 2018.
I would like to thank you all for your support and sharing your experiences.
I wish you all good luck!

FEW, not many, have oath and test on the same day. Those are usually cases of extreme travel to get to the office processing the application.
