Im from Toronto too and my application went in process august 9th. Got to talk to a nice agent and he told me that I have cleared the background checks two 2 months ago and they had sent my file to mississauga and that I am waiting to hear from the Mississauga test centre for a test date. I'm glad to get an update atleast I know that my background check is done! just waiting for a test date now.

My worry is that I need to go out of country for two months (Dec & Jan). Should I call and ask to push my test date?

I am travelling for 2 weeks so called CIC and they made an entry in the file so that test date is not given for the specific date. You can do the same.

What in the world is happening with Toronto applicants. Its a struggle since i ever started my immigration journey from Toronto. Always the last. With more applicants, more fees, more revenue, more taxes we would expect more resources (test centers) to support higher volume. I get it for the centralized processes which require fair allocation across Canada. But for a Toronto specific test..... Its like standing in an economy class queue with same number of check in counters as that for the business class but with the same ticket price....

100% agree with you! It's unbelievable that a country like Canada can be soooo slow. They just take their own sweet time.

Checked ECAS this morning, another line got added. Not sure when it appeared as I haven't checked it since I got the test email. Regardless, here it goes::

4. We sent you a notice on October 26, 2018 to appear and write the citizenship test on November 22, 2018 at 8:01 AM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

Would they also send a hard copy in the mail or the email invite should be sufficient?
