Hello everyone!
We haven’t had an update since May 20th. Am happy for those who got their tests done!

Is it normal to get a test invite while the background verification is still "in progress"?

How long does it take to track application online?
I received AOR 3 days ago.I couldn’t track my application.

My best guess is the background check may vary depending upon the country of origin, some may take more time than others. I read in news about someone having their application stuck for more than 3 years because their background check was taking time. Maybe compare timelines with someone with a similar background as yourself. This is just a guess.

Thank you so much for your response. I appreciate it.

You should have gotten it by now.

Please check the emails for all the applicants, maybe someone else on your application received it. In my case I received the email for both me and my spouse while spouse never got any email regarding the test.

Also look into your spam folder, many times the emails end up there.

When you try to take the test is it not recognizing your details? You need to enter the application number and another number on the test portal, it will let you in only if you have been invited.

The dates given to me is between Sep 3 and 23. So I believe I need to wait. Meanwhile does the email contain any important information or is it just a general information?
