It looks like nearly 50% of the May 2020 applicants are through with their oath. I know a lot of us got the test invitation around the same time. I wonder will it be the same for the oath? Anyone have any recent updates to give us all a little bit of hope?
Thanks!

I see on all 2020 citizenship threads there is an increase activity on oath invites (also increased decision made on old ecas tracker). Still there are some those are fortunate than the others. But overall in next few weeks most, if not all, will get oath invites.

I can truly understand your pain my friend. We are all in the same boat. I would recommend you sending a complaint via the IRCC website.

Last option
Complaint: An unmet expectation relating to the department's services, performance, or processes

some people had luck getting their next step come into effect after doing so. Godspeed!

With any luck.

Expect a new FP request if its more than a year since you gave your last one.

Honestly speaking, I am getting mental depression because of this enormous delay by the Calgary office.

I feel your pain buddy, i’m in the same boat.

Calgary office(Alberta in general) isn’t bothered at all to send out oath ceremonies or test invitations especially to 2020 apps.
A friend applied in 2021 (Calgary) got his test invite a month after i got my test invite (i applied in July, 2020 Calgary).

Stay patient, this too shall pass soon. Good luck and Godspeed!!!

You haven't even got test invitation? That's ridiculous.

I know this wasn't a reply to me but it took seven days, including weekend, for me to get my certificate (sent from Vancouver to Whistler). Oath date was Feb 8th and certificate was in my mailbox on Feb 15th.

You don't typically get email updates when they update these statuses, even DM. The next email you will probably get is when you get the invite for the ceremony. This was my experience, anyway.

Thanks, I was trying to figure out timelines for Vancouver office. Seems like they are typically fast with an average of 4-7 days
