Anyone waiting for next steps (Interview/DM) more than 3 or 4 months after completing the online test?
Feels like they are creating a new backlog now at this stage and wanted to see if anyone still waiting this long.

A year ago there were almost 90,000 applications waiting for the citizenship test. When the pandemic required offices to be closed with in-person meetings and gatherings cancelled and with many other staff working from home. testing for the most part came to a halt except in very limited special cases.
By the end of January over 300,000 had been waiting for the citizenship process to resume with over 100 thousand waiting for their actual citizenship tests.
Even with the backlog, the federal government announced in April, an additional pathway to citizenship for 90,000 people living in Canada to be eligible for the citizenship process. This would apply to international students in graduate studies.
So now u can do the math.

Thank you this is helpful info, thank you for sharing.
I was more interested in the recent months with individuals who have already completed the online Test. It seemed that they were moving quickly after completing test with the rest of the process but now it seems it is slow again, so wanted to know how many are waiting after completing online test for next steps over 3-4 months.
In summer time Cic officers are out of stock. Pandemic for them was just an excuse to not work hence the oath are being scheduled onto 2022. recently someone just got an oath for Jan 2022 .
When you received the test invite, how many days did they allow you to do the test?

The test window is standard. 21 days from the test start date.
Thank you so much for your prompt reply. Is there any difference between the date we receive the test invite and the test start date?
That was one case and we are not even sure if that is legit. It could very well be a glitch OR a prank (It is very easy to make the dates look like that with simple changes in the page's HTML).January 2022??!! wtf really? that's crazy
There is no need to panic OR spread panic.
Don't believe me? Take a look at this status. Pay attention to the dates.
Thanks!

Need some clarifications please.
We completed our tests in Feb'21 & still waiting for our Oath invitation.
Question is, it is only the parents who should take oath online interview or we also should bring our kids to them?
