Any update Feb test-takers?

Seems like there was a wave of Oath invitations sent out to test-takers and now there's a hiatus as they prepare to send out invitation to the next batch or something like that!

No update :(
Any idea how long this hiatus usually lasts? I read on the forums that some March test takers have already received Oath letters too.
 
Hi all

I just called CIC about my file status. According to her saying, my file already moved to Scarborough office and waiting for the oath scheduling and no additional papers required. By the way, I took my test at St Clair office on February 10, 2014.
 
Chryss, its just an assumption - I should not be judging speed of workflow just from the number of participants in this forum! it'd be a small sample to draw any conclusion :)
