THE CLOUDS HAVE PARTED AND THE SUN SHINES DOWN UPON ME TODAY FRIENDS!

I have received Decision Made status on ECAS. I’m assuming it’s a positive decision or I would have received a PFL or interview.



My test was marked sometime in the last week after about 5 weeks (yay not invalidated!!) and LPP completed yesterday (showing today on ECAS.)

I am over the moon and can’t wait to get my oath invite. I was really down this past week but just kept telling myself,
“There is another version of you on the other side of this who is a citizen. She is proud of you and cheering you on!”

So friends, I am cheering you on! This all SUCKS let’s not mince words. But It’s always darkest before dawn, can’t have rainbows without rain, smooth seas never made a good captain, etc.

What a great way to start my Saturday! I hope good news is coming soon to all of you still waiting. I’ll be on here until I take my oath and then I hope to never come around again honestly hahaha.

@admin please update the spreadsheet

Have anyone experienced having scheduled to take the test but no 21 day time frame? They gave me the exact 1 day date - July 25 and that’s it. Could it be connected with the fact that I asked for urgent processing of my application, therefore they’ll have someone check the test right away and update profile or anything of that kind?

That means it’s an in-person test, interview, and oath taking in one go.

Question please: when can one expect an email for a test invitation if the tracker says a person was scheduled for the test?

Yes it almost feels suspiciously fast? I’m trying to stay in a positive state but as always, my brain is like, “Hey, what if it’s so fast because they denied you?” :rolleyes:
Regardless, today is a good day.

You have nothing to worry about! You're in the clear! Next up: Citizenship ceremony. Hopefully that invitation will come soon enough.
