IP since Jan 03, nothing so far. Called IRCC yesterday, unfortunately the lady was helpless and refused to give me any additional information I don't know. Said, my computer has same info you have on Ecas! OMG ..

Statistics come from Calgary office for Jan not as great as Dec when other offices were celebrating Christmas early.

Calgary Applicants: need your help and input

Hello Everyone,
I got hold of IRCC agent and asked about my citizenship application status. My application has been in process since Dec 19 2017. She told me that the application has been transferred to Calgary office and undergoing background check and awaiting test date finalization in Calgary. Wanted to know if someone in the group went thru same and what do they mean by background check. Also any idea how long is this process before i get test invite call. The test invite is thru call email or letter.

Background checks, Eh? that is frustrating.... So they make sure all background checks are done before they issue test dates.

Or background checks continue after the test as well? Does anyone know the process.

In Process Since Dec 8. However, I changed my address, that's why the file got transferred from Edmonton to Calgary [I called CIC and the agent told me this 3 days ago].
Let's see what comes in the mail.
I guess Calgary Office is very straightforward.

I called the call center this morning and was told the same. File still under background check and no body know how long it takes! Eh
And ya I saw some people here said that they passed the test but the oath was put on hold till background check done!!
Simply, you can't understand how these people work!

Ya I think changing address for sure delays your application but it depends on the communication between your old and new office.
Everybody here used to say that Calgary office one of the fastest but honestly not for last Jan, there was a significant drop in their work, May be some employees took their vacation in Jan. Hopefully they go back again for their good job during Feb and after.
Just do the FP when you first receive the letter to avoid further delays, good luck.

Im not even "In Process" and was told background checks

 

[perlsteve]

So honest question for Feb. 8th (today) test takers - how many grabbed a hotel or stayed with someone downtown? Sounds like more than just us did - we thought we were being a bit paranoid

 

[WeazyF]

What's going on with folks in Calgary?! Is there an average time for complete application?!
