It's just a waiting game now, last time I called cic I was told I should have my test by January 2014...

Onyex.. I am curious as how you got CIC to give you that information. I have not been successful any getting info from them. My timeline is absolutely horrendous..

Congrats Mr Lonley.. we have such similar timelines I have no idea why mine is taking so much longer. I doubt you are still using this forum now that your cermony is tomorrow :D
 
Hi Jaycrew, you do have a long waiting time. From May 2011 up until now there is no writtent test invitation?
Just curious, did you get an RQ or request for fingerprint(same as mine)?
If not, and your papers falls under the normal processing without any request for further documents you may want to get in touch with your MP/MLA because it is way beyong the 25 months and seek for his assistance.

Keep us posted.

I was also told by CIC few months ago that I will have my test by August 2014 :o I called for a different reason (I could not check my status online) and the guy was so nice he updated me on my application process!

Good luck and hope you get your test very soon!
