@engray Have got the OATH date on tracker today. Please update the spreadsheet
 
Hello guys,

I'm still waiting for an update since almost 6 months, last update was in August 2021. Here is my timeline:
:
Application filled (paper based): Feb 14, 2021
AOR: April 22, 2021
Citizenship Test: Aug 9, 2021
Citizenship Test Completed: Aug 23, 2021
Prohibitions, Language Skills, Physical Presence show "In Progess"

Are there other applicants that applied around the same time that are also waiting for an update? How long does it usually take for these three to be completed?

Thanks!

My timeline is almost exactly the same as yours, only a few days difference on each step. My last update is Aug 24, 2021 after completing the test. I was asked to submit PP copies though on early Oct and I submitted the next day. Scarborough office.
 
Hi
any applicants who took test in Dec still waiting for any update (test completed) ? I did my test in Dec and there is still no progress update
yes, I completed the test since September, still no update, everything else still in progress.
 
Update today:
Oath Ceremony - 3rd March

Almost there!!

Question - I have a business trip to the USA scheduled for March 12-14, traveling by driving - will I be able to have the certificate sent faster so I may have an urgent passport application sent?

Congrats. If you have the tickets already, ask the officer/clerk during the ceremony and they will offer a pick-up or expedited courier delivery for the certificate. Then you can request an appointment for express/urgent passport application. Good luck!

  • Your application was transferred to the Vancouver office on August 26th, 2021.
  • Security assessment was completed on Jan 20th, 2022.
  • The file is moving.
  • There is no additional information required from the applicant at this time.
  • When fingerprints were requested, it became a non-routine application.

Meanwhile, I sent multiple IRCC Web Forms, and all got standard replies.

Hopefully I will receive the test invite soon. I studied so hard 3 months ago ... and now my vibe has diminished
