Hi all,
I just watch the video (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/discover-canada.html) and it says that once we passed the test, we will be getting invitation to take the oath in 4-6 weeks.

The video may not be valid anymore as it is showing in-person test (my understanding it's online test for everyone now?) and not sure if the 4-6 weeks is also still valid? If it's still valid, knowing that I applied in Oct '22 and being invited for the test in March '23 and assuming I pass the test on my first attempt, then, I will be invited to take the oath by May '23 for a total processing time of 7 months.

Up until today, the total processing time is 23 months for citizenship grant (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-processing-times.html).

That said, anyone can confirm if the 4-6 weeks after passing the test is still valid?

TIA!

It’s not 4-6 weeks but 4-6 months. That’s the general guideline for some people it a couple of weeks after test for some it’s a few months.

Thx for the clarification!

Even if it's 6 months and assuming I pass the test that I'm going to sit for this month in March (invitation in Sep '23), this means that the total processing time for me who submitted my application in Oct '22 = 11 months. Let see if the process really that fast.
