The columns are currently sorted by CIC Office followed by the TEST DATE.
Since most of the current entries (all 60+) have OATH CEREMONY DATES, I think those 2 parameters are the most salient features of the table.
While everyone, is anxious at every stage, there is clearly a huge variability due to several factors. For now, I'd like to give other applicants a reasonable range of time to expect. Also brought down the table to the barest and simplest data which we can all appreciate and relate to. You may want to check on the RQ column and type of application since these clearly are strongly correlated with the speed of the process.

I originally have the file completely editable by the public so everyone can contribute freely but that caused problems from the simplest of people tampering with the sorting to the more serious one of vandalism and deletion of the whole spreadsheet.

Thanks for your feedback. I hope this will help ease out our shared agony over waiting for a process that we have little control ourselves.

Congrats! How come CIC centers in Ontario are waaay so fast! What's happening in the western provinces? I thought immigration and citizenship was a federal thing? What can we do to help applicants from the west?

Thanks. I agree that for the last year or so things are moving well in Ontario. What are the reasons behind it? I honestly dont know and dont think anyone can do anything to speed it up for the other provinces. Its something which needs political decision making and implementation which is beyond an applicant's control.

Best of luck for your case anyways.
