Hi, taking the test on June 18-July 8th. E-mail received
 
I am August applicant. Currently, I am outside Canada, if I get the invite, would I be able to take the test from outside Canada?
 
stuntxd9's case is merely a lucky coincidence. Even I received that same email 3 days back. And after becoming stupidly excited - I logged in to check my updates - only to become :( again.
My partner got that same email yesterday and was like, "OMG! OMG! Finally!" Only to have that epic letdown as well.
It's getting to be so long and sooooo boring waiting. Our issue is that he really needs to go back to the UK to take care of some stuff, but you're effectively paralized because it's not easy to travel back quickly if you get the invite...

I am in a similar situation too. I have some outstanding issues to sort out in my home country which would easily take 8-12 months. And if I don't get to it by start of next year, I start bleeding money. Looking at the mid-2019 applicants frustrations, I am getting stressed out of late. It really sucks!

No, you can’t. No exceptions for test / interview / oath.
Can we ask them to put the test on hold as we are out of country ? How do we contact them ?
 
Does anyone have any experience in what happens to an application that tis currently in progress, background check is complete and is not required to sit the test? Is the next step to go to "decision made"?

Well, depends. If the applicant is a minor under 14 (no oath required), then the application is approved and is considered "Complete". However, if it is an adult over 54, then the status will change to "Decision Made" and then the applicant has to wait for oath.

Yes, if you're 55 years or older, the next step is approval of your application. Though I am not sure if one still requires interview in that scenario.
