My background verification was completed September 8.
My citizenship test was completed October 3.
My processing office so far seems to be Scarborough.
I'm trying really hard to be patient.But I check daily and it's becoming a bit of an obsession. I just hope nothing went wrong and it's just a waiting game. This timeline is still normal, right? Anyone else in similar situation?

Applied Dec 6th, BG completed August, and Test completed September 12. Everything else in progress. While the majority of applicants with similar timelines had their oaths scheduled in the Nov- Jan/Feb period, it seems others are still waiting. I personally contacted them multiple times and every time they confirmed that there do not seem to be any issues, and I just need to wait. Will update this forum once I get any updates.

You should get email a week before your oath.

Oh that sucks. Let's hope they get started on the rest of your application soon!
You know, I should technically not be in any hurry. I know there are people who need fast processing times much more than I do. But there's that nagging feeling that rejection is a possibility, or an application getting lost, that makes being patient hard for me. At the same time, I really don't want to bother them by calling or emailing, unless I have a really good reason.

It was good and lasted for 1:30 hrs. Started 8:30 AM EST and concluded at 10:00 AM. From 8:30 to 9:00 AM they will verify id proofs of everyone joined virtually and ask you to cut your PR card with scissor. From 9:00 AM they will start with Oath which will both be in French and English.
