FYI. I have not received an invitation for test yet. However I am getting documents ready. I ordered Ontario Personal Claims history (PCH). I received it in about 3 weeks. The whole process is online. It is free of cost. I received an email from secure-messaging.com to click on a link w.deliveryslip.com. A separate email from xyz.abc@ontario.ca who is a records clerk contained a pin to access the messages. Basically the link takes you to a website which can be used to securely communicate with government officials (as far as I can see). I found my PCH in the inbox of this messaging system in form of a pdf file.

Thanks for sharing
I applied for PHC last week of Dec 2020, and I didn't receive any email yet.

Why PCH? And what is it required for?

There's no such thing called 'virtual interview'. There's test and then there is oath. You might be asked for additional documents but I see that you have already received your test invite so that too is unlikely. Additional documents are being asked for a few applicants and mostly before the test invite.
Are you sure that there is no other step between the online test and the oath ceremony? The tracking sheet still has a column for Interview date for Dec 2019 applicants so I just wanted to check.

We completed our online test today, in case you would like to update the sheet. My only concern with the test is that the photo of the id that I took through webcam was out of focus. I tried different angles but it didn't help. I wonder if it was our webcam or if everyone faces that problem.

There is an interview date because there were the test and the interview were conducted on the same day before COVID for in-person tests.

However, I have seen only one or two applicants who were actually scheduled for a virtual interview recently. At the time I posted my previous comment, I had not seen any cases of virtual interview whatsoever. One person who received the interview invite had a very long travel history and that is probably why he was asked to attend a virtual interview. Usually, this step doesn't happen to a lot of applicants.

After test, your status changes to DM (Decision Made) AFAIK and you get an oath invite. That's about it.

Good luck!

Like mentioned above, that link will have all the info and you don't have to worry about that right now. In terms of documents, only 1 piece of ID with photo and signature, such as driving license was needed. You have to scan your ID through the webcam. Test feels very easy if you prepare well. I spent 6-7 hours preparing.
