Agree... someone needs to send them some coffee ...
To be honest the worst office so far by trend I see is Saskatoon office. Bunch of lazy people works here.
Trust me, I work for Fed Govt. (Different Dept) in SK and I have no idea how some people work here for ages with no brain!
They don't even consider that this is the only office for the role province! lol

Now waiting for AOR.

As per calculator, My days completed on 21-December-2017 and I did not wait for a week or so as per few advisers here. I sent my application next day. Because I want to be citizen as soon as possible. lol . I hope, no mistake.

Where are you located? Is it a single application? can you confirm the physical presence = 1096? I have added the rest to the spreadsheet.

Hi
I'm new in this forum, and would like to share my experience with you. I applied on the 4/6 rule. I sent a single application on September 17. My application was returned back on October 5th. The reason was I didn't put the date next to my signature in the physical calculator and I didn't provide a reason why my passport was not valid. I resend it after amending on October 7th. They will assess my application on the new rule 3/5 as they informed me.

Application received( the amended one) : October 17th
AOR: November: November 10th
IP: December 1st
Test invitation: January 4th( 11:50 am)
Test date: January 22nd( Edmonton)

They sent me the test invitation via email. I will receive it as official within the mail as they said. Though I'checked ECAS yesterday afternoon, but it was not updated. They sent me the email and today my ECAS was updated. The invitation was sent on December 28th
Congrats on a swift process.
Do not expect something in the mail. They wrote the same for me and I never received any normal mail, but just emails and Ecas updates. Just print out your Email and you should be fine.

I think email should be the new norm here, printing it out and putting it in an envelope and sealing the envelope ...would cost much more time and resources than just one click , and in this day and age there is no reason to keep using the regular mail for this process

Added. What's your location and # physical presence days ? Also, do you mean you applied for urgent processing ? Doesn't look like it from your timeline.
