There is anecdotal evidence that taking the test from outside of Canada slows down your application, and it could lead to an interview to verify your documents, to check whether you are presently in Canada, etc.

Any Dec applicants with their test invite from Scarborough still waiting for LPP completion? I wrote my test from outside Canada, which was marked as complete on Apr 5th (updated on Apr 7). Since then, there have been no updates. I see many folks from the Scarborough office starting to get oath invites. Just wondering if I should be worried

Hi, guys! Question: me and my husband took the test May 26, my husband had some issues with camera on our tablet and was not able to switch to the frontal, so he did the test with back camera. I had no issues. In the tracker My test status was completed in couple days, his is still in progress. Have you heard anyone had same experience?

Test verification takes time. Give some more days for it to complete.

Tests sometimes get invalidated due to poor background light or grainy/blurry pictures of the IDs. I hope this hasn't happened in your case. You can call IRCC to find out what's happening; if they don't answer whether things are okay or if it's going to be a retest, then order GCMS notes and also submit a webform inquiry.

thank you for your reply. We emailed IRCC and they replied that our applications will be reviewed by the officer, they didn’t mention anything regarding retesting. If it goes under review meaning that it will take way longer, right?

 

[derkdsou]

So it's already taken longer; I would suspect there's a retest coming. You can order GCMS notes, like I said, because I doubt you will get an answer that satisfies you via phone or webform.

Hope we all see some progress soon. I filled out a webform a few days ago, but I am not sure they'd say much since we are well within the processing times.
