You should raise a web form and let IRCC know that your test was cancelled so they can send you a test invite. Do let us know what was the response from IRCC.

Good luck.

Almost everyone here is a little bit nervous and has been for a while now. While you are free to send the web form it comes back with nothing, but the general counselling blah-blah about COVID, understaffed offices etc. (tried that one too). Calling isn't much better, but at least you'll be able to ask direct questions pertaining to the status of your file and get direct answers on where it is, whether there are any checks pending etc. Not quite GCMS notes, but the agent will look at them and if you ask the right questions you'll get better answers. If all is good on the file then they switch back to counselling (see above). Agents on the phone can't do much though. But IMHO calling gives you a clearer status

They wouldn't tell me anything when I called and asked why I'm still waiting for decision made...just the standard be patient, understaffed, covid blah blah.

Well, they can't and they don't comment they exact question you quoted (why) if thter's no clear answer on the file they are looking at, but what they can do is they can confirm whether your file is ready for the next step (whatever it may be) or whether there are e.g. background checks going on etc. Lots of guessing, but generally somewhat better than a pointless webform reply, I believe. Although the quality of the webform reply might and probably largely depends on (i) the question as formulated in the query and (ii) the person answering it. They are not robots out there and naturally some give a bit more sense and thought in their replies whereas others' give-a-sh*t-meter is simply broken and they do their 9-to-5 jobs without much thought.

I asked if I was going to be scheduled for an oath ceremony soon and he just went on about lack of staff and covid...so he really told me nothing.

Hi,
Is there any cumulative data of how many people have been invited for online tests so far? Ours was scheduled for April 16th 2020 and then cancelled, I did raise a web form months ago and they answered that they will inform me when it resumes, nothing so far.
