Yolka, what is your timeline if you dont mind. Thanks.

Hi Jaycrew, you do have a long waiting time. From May 2011 up until now there is no writtent test invitation? Just curious, did you get an RQ or request for fingerprint(same as mine)? If not, and your papers falls under the normal processing without any request for further documents you may want...

Congrats Angomos!! What is your local CIC office?
