What number did the others call on?
What options did you select to talk to an agent?
And, what's the ideal time to call?
Called them today and got to an agent after a 30 minute wait.

Agent said that sometimes the online tracker is not right and the data sometimes wrongly says that oath has been scheduled - but that it means nothing till I get an email invitation.

He said he'd reach out directly to the office involved and that if an invite is sent out, it would be done this week - but no guarantees.

Told me not to worry even in case I don't get an invite, and that they'd reschedule me in case they're unable to do for the 15th.

"Told me not to worry even in case I don't get an invite, and that they'd reschedule me in case they're unable to do for the 15th." -I would've lost my cool at this point.

I am sure you will get it this week.

Losing my cool was not an option. What would that have achieved really? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
Definitely would be disappointing, I have this date on the tracker for the past 3 months.

Finally we got test invite , it was husband background check what was slowing down our process as he is truck driver so I guess they check every state (or something like that) as it took almost 2 years to be completed his background.
Test time window was from February 2nd to 22nd , I couldn't wait any longer so on February 1st at 11:30pm I prepared laptop , restarted rooter , laptop and made myself ready for test right after midnight . It took some time to take photo of ID and myself but test was done in like few minutes .
My score was 20/20 .
Husband also took test same day at evening his score was 18/20.
Now we waiting on them to verify everything was ok and on update test as completed.

can you please share the number and options to be connected? I have my oath scheduled for Mar 3 but haven't received anything in email yet. I was thinking to call them this week or the next. Thanks

Too early to call. Raise a webform 2 weeks prior, and if you don't receive a response then call 1 week prior.

They might ask for fingerprints. If you have already submitted it before then it is likely that the record has expired as fingerprint results are valid for 1 year.

Thank you for your reply. I have done fingerprint in March, 2021. It should not be expired yet. I am just tired of these snails!! Do you know any March 2020 still waiting or all are completed??
