Ecas status changed to Decision Made for me. Wife's still In Process. When can I expect oath invite email.

Please advise
Thank you.
It's hard to see a system in this. I'm guessing it depends on the workload of your specific case worker as much as anything. But I'm just guessing.

I had my test and interview at the end of November, and was told there that I had passed, and to expect a letter of invitation for the oath in 2-3 months time. I haven't heard anything yet. (My application is at Hamilton, ON).
 
Hello Everyone,

Have decision made on my file, having passed the test yesterday.

City is Missassauga and test location was Scarborough.

Interestingly the lady asked for travel plans within the next 3-4 weeks but did not offer for oath ceremony today, even though there is a planned travel in less than 4 weeks,.

Cheers
 
Hello Everyone,

I have completed my citizenship journey today. Took oath at Scorbrough center with another 95 fellow citizens.
Rough time line:
Application sent: April
In process - 29th Aug
Test invite: 22 Feb
Test date 10 March
Oath invite 10 March
Oath date 11 March

Thank you for everyone's guidance and su[[prt. Best of luck everyone.
 
Taken the oath today (March 11) and got all our certificates in hand at the Scarborough centre. The mission has ended.

Took a picture of our PR cards beforehand as a souvenir since we would have to return them at the ceremony. I don't know... I just felt like doing it because those cards symbolized a much much tougher mission -- "getting PR."

I thank you everyone and good luck to all who are awaiting their citizenship. Good luck.
 
Hi, Please update my information on the excel tracking sheet:

FP Request done: Jan 22, 2020
Decision Made Status change: March 11, 2020

I had passed my test on Jan 9, 2020 and seems like these guys were just sitting on my application since then. I requested an update on my application through the webform on Mar 9 and then, today after receiving their email reply, the status changed on my application.

Will update once i receive my oath request.

Thanks.

Same here.
Forgot to take the PR card picture though. However, I feel the COPR letter symbolized much more than the card itself in the mission for "getting PR" :)

Thanks! In our session, there were 80-90 ppl. When we were coming out of the oath room, they were already preparing that room for another batch of people. I think several oath sessions take place on a given day. There were also some people waiting on the same floor for the test.

Can someone who took their test at 325 Milner Ave, Scarborough please explain the parking situation? Is it paid / free? How do I pay and/or top-up if it's paid parking?

Its a paid parking there. The parking ticket kiosk is in the lobby of the building. $8 max. There will be cheaper options nearby but since I am from the Niagara region who went there for the test I am not sure of them.
