Hello.. my husband and I are August applicants and took our test on February 6th, 2020. Both of us passed our test. However, the status is still "In Process". I see on other threads that the status changed to Decision Made within a week of their tests so just concerned. What is the usual turn around for Scarborough office? Thank you in advance.

You can find out here.
 
I did. But there are not many Scarborough applicants listed to understand the pattern. So just wanted an opinion. Thanks though.
If you can see my signature, mine took pretty while it’s case by case though.

Test invitation received by email: December 2, 2019

Test date:
December 23, 2019 (in Scarborough)
Test and interview completed: December 23, 2019
Decision Made: February 14, 2020

Oath invitation:
February 21, 2020 Citizenship Ceremony: March 17, 2020 (in Scarborough)

Also, if you take a look the link I provide, there it’s a tendency to take longer from IP to DM after May or June i don’t quite remember but it looks like it. Some people even waiting for 5 months in progress.

Test Invite Email: Feb-7-2020 (ECAS actually states it was sent Feb-5-2020)
Test Date: Feb-22-2020 @ 8:16 am (weird appointment time 8:16:eek: not 8:15:rolleyes:)
Office: Scarborough

Passed my test, 20/20:cool:...As it is being mentioned before, reading the Discover Canada and doing multiple practice tests online will suffice. The officer didn't check anything for me. He said to expect attend the oath ceremony in spring or early summer....so the waiting continues.

Just be patient y'all

Thanks, can you elaborate on what the 'In Process' page showed while you were waiting after the test, so for your case, between December the 23 and the Decision made date - Feb 14?
Mine shows the last update being the FP request for which I received the notification and answered right away.
My dates were FP request - Nov 20, FP submitted - Nov 22, Test invitation Dec 20 - Test and interview completed: 15 Jan.
Is there supposed to be any reflection of the test being completed as part of the 'In Process' page details?

Are there people who haven't received a test date yet? Seems like a lot of people have. My application processing date was Nov 28, 2019 and I've yet to receive a test date. Oh well, gotta play the waiting game I guess.
