It sounds like SOON, but it looks like it's a bit random nowadays... Since you had an update, it's a good sign.
Thanks. it's been a long time for 4.5 months since DM was made.

Did you ask for urgent processing? This is a lightening speed after DM!DM was last week 1st Nov 2021
I've emailed IRCC.DNCenMTLConvoEapp-EappConvoMTLCenDN.IRCC@cic.gc.caAnother question: has anyone reached out to the Montreal office by email asking about your file progress? If yes, what's their email address? I see others send emails to their offices, and they get responses and progress in their files.
Lol. I told you so! It looks like our applications were handled by same agent… Congrats!Got my Oath today, ceremony is on the 29th. Signature has all my details. I hope you all get some traction soon!
I requested free one. It looks like Privacy Act is if you request the notes for yourself. Information - someone is requesting about somebody else…Question: I want to apply for GCMS notes. But there are one option that requires $5 (Access to Information Act), and one that is free (Privacy Act). Which one should I choose? Also, do I need a copy of my PR card, or I just can use my UCI number and application number?
Nope no Urgent Processing at all, i was shocked actually i got my DM last week and today i went in my application tracker and find out, i did not believe my eyes actually specially Monday morning too good news are rare i was expecting to wait till March-April 2022 but here we go a week between the DM and Oath and whole process took 11 months, it is random all the time.Did you ask for urgent processing?

Based on your hypothesis I should have received my oath already. Or I will wait another year....Yes, this is what I think. They don’t care when you submitted your application. What they care about is when your background check is expiring (if the rest is fine). That’s why the later applicants are moving faster than the 2019 ones. Our second (the first one expired when they were relaxing at home) BG check was run in 2021 what brings its expiry date to 2022, what eventually makes our applications of low priority in terms of oath invitation…
My notes say that my paper file was transferred to the online ceremony room in July 2021 and was not touched ever since. A lot of other applicants receive oath invitation in a short while after DM. You think they are slowing down my file on purpose? No, my BG check is expiring April 2022, that’s why…
Thanks. Do you think if I order the notes, my file will be delayed until I get the notes at least? I am afraid if I am about to get my oath scheduled, ordering the notes may delay it.I requested free one. It looks like Privacy Act is if you request the notes for yourself.

I was going to write something about this earlier; in all honesty, I filed for GCMS notes back in early October (for the record, still haven't gotten them) and I sent a webform almost exactly a month later. I was super polite in it (I understand the issues with the pandemic and Afghanistan, but it would mean a lot to be a Canadian citizen, etc.) Very respectful tone I think/hope helped out. And a week later, the Oath!I don’t think so.
In any case, i believe your oath invitation will arrive earlier than the notes will be delivered (takes a month at minimum).
You just have to poke IRCC in some way to get noticed. I changed my address and soon after received an invitation. chs sent them a massage last week and received the update today.
chs, could you please share what kinda massage you wrote to IRCC?
You can order GCMS notes, the expiration date is indicated there. The BG check is valid for one year. I can speculate that the new BG check will take around a month for IRCC to perform. IRCC cannot continue processing your application if the BG check expired. So if at any application stage (till the oath) your BG check expires, IRCC has to do it again.Hello friends,
I apologize for asking the question:
How does our friend @Orgcom guess when his BG check expiration date will be?
How long does the validity of the BG check last? ... And what happens if it ever expires after passing the test? ... How long does a new BG check take on average?
Thanks a lot, friends !
