Hi all
My application was sent in Jan 11 and was processed on Mar 21.
Still to this date, I have not received an interview invite. I have emailed CIC and they are saying everything is fine and processing centre will contact me. Is it normal for a such long wait? I have moved a few months ago. But if they mailed/emailed you, there should be an entry online in your application status right? Any info is appreciated. Thank you.

No update till date. Me & wife called the call center to check what going on and they informed everything is good and now we have to wait for the test date and the agent asked to call again if we dont receive any update by 9th January 2019 (which will be 1 year)

Its frustrating but cant do anything!!!!!
Wow we have the same date. I have not received an invite for test/interview either. Very frustrating indeed. All my friends who applied in Oct and Nov have been sworn in.

Hi all,

I have been a silent reader on this thread since I submitted my application January of this year and I am almost at the end of my journey and would like to share with you my timeline especially for those waiting in Vancouver. Although they never requested for fingerprints, it took me a full year since I requested for a name change on my application and that set me back a couple of months. But it seems like the timeline for most people usually does take a full year from submitting your application to taking your oath of citizenship as I also have a friend who recently became a citizen this September and it took him 2 weeks short of a year since his application.

Please hang in there and I hope you all get to reach the end of your journeys as well!
