After I was so excited that my ECAS finally showed DM in August 2020, they changed it back to "In Process" on September 10 requesting a second-time fingerprint in which I did right away and confirmed delivered to the IRCC in September 21. Still, so far my status is shown as "In Process" and When I called IRCC or sent a message in the web form, they responded that everything is in process. Honestly, I don't know what is going on with the Calgary office. They recently finished several applications then they stopped again based on the activities I see here. I am an April 2019 applicant who happens to be among the very unlucky ones. Anyone in a similar situation?

Yes, you're not the only one in this situation. they ask for fingerprint for a second time because fingerprints usually expire after 12 months, so if they asked you for fingerprints again that means the one they already have is expired. the exact thing happened to me, but for me it was even worse, I had DM and the very next day they announced that they will suspend all the citizenship ceremonies lol, it took long time and of course they asked me for fingerprints again and now it's in process again.

Very unlucky. The majority of April 2019 applicants are already done while ago. Some, like myself, are very unlucky. Let me know if you get any updates, please. Good luck!

Applied on sep 30 2019. Passed the online test on Jan 24 2021 and DM on Feb 9 2021. Waiting for oath from Calgary office. Any guesses how long it would take to receive oath invite? Anyone recently got an oath invite from Calgary office?
Thank you

I did my test Jan 25, 2021. No updates since then.
You will most likely get your status changed to desicion made this week. I will keep you posted if I get any updates from my end.

Still waiting, Applied in April 2019, cleared the test in October 2019, and waiting........... since this time ...... Calgary office is super slow.
After receiving DM on August 2020, it went back to "In process" again because my fingerprint was expired, I did another one right away in September 2020 and nothing ... all they say is wait wait wait wait wait .............................. truly frustrating!
