That’s normal - I sent my renewal all in September and the card was mailed in mid-December. Once you got AOR it will move quickly. My AOR was less than 2 weeks before the card was mailed
After my AOR it too one day to get approved and card is in mail as we speak

I got my Oath invitation today (id: behzadip). Here is the timeline:

AOR: Nov 15, 2017
Filed moved to Scarborough from Mississauga in July 2018
Test: Jan 9, 2019

I called two times after my one year completed, both time they said everything is fine with the application and its only in queue to be assigned a test date.

Than expect your test soon . Not true finger prints turns the application non routine many where asked for finger prints and got their oath within a year.My friend submitted finger prints in August and Feb 7 is his test before completing one year. They should ask for finger prints for many for us so our BG gets cleared soon better than waiting so long.

It's been a year since I submitted my finger prints, no test invite yet.

I am out of thoughts it seems people like us coming from Lebanon has to wait long .. but Middle eastern people who came directly from the GULF are getting test invites sooner. Just today I knew three people from Gulf applied Feb 2018 are testing this month

I don't know about that, but I was living in Dubai before coming here. Seems like living in that fancy city didn't help

Dear rooftop,
yours and my timelines are exactly the same and your name is just above mine on the tracker, hoping to hear something soon from the IRCC now. Lets see.

Hi everyone,

I have been waiting for over 16 months and from the past 9 months after my test. They say they are doing the background checks and who knows how long they could take. Does anyone know what is the longest time they ever took?

Happy weekend!

I passed one year from my test and still probation and residency not started . I talked to Mp and they send the email to them 17 days a go but no news yet .I passed the 18 month from beginning. I requested ATIP and compared it by one that i ordered October 2018 . Word by word was the same no changes. Just the top was the date of January 2019.but all update data was October 2018.
