Hi all,
Has anyone got any notifications of their citizenship test date lately? My application has been "in process" since Dec 31, 2019. AOR received Nov 26
I know COVID19 caused a suspension of courts and oath ceremonies but I am too impatient honestly. This has been taking forever. I applied in August.

That's a long wait. Probably because application fell into non-routine processing. Have you considered applying for GCMS notes to see what is going on with the application?

Hey, I applied for it. didn't get much information out of it. Spoke twice with Agents during One year processing period. Both of them told me your file is routine. Even when I called the last time, she was a bit rude but told me its a routine application, and she can see that recently it was accessed which means someone is working on it.

Hey guys, I called Cic on 26th Feburary, 2020 Agent told me everything looks okay and they are working on it. It was only 6 days past the 12 months period so agent said they won't be notifying the respective office. Told me to be a little more patient. Also I ordered Atip notes on 25th Feb, 2020 to see whats the status of my file. I hope Atip notes wont delay my processing time.
Hey guys,
I received Atip notes. Only Criminality status shows passed. All other stages like Knowledge, Residence, Language, Prohibition and oath are "not started". Its been in process since 6th June, 2019. Haven't heard anything back. Still waiting for the test invite. I know Covid19 is gonna delay the process more. I hope and pray situation gets better in coming months. Be safe and stay home.
