Hi tstarks,

My office is scarborough as well and haven't received any test notification yet :-[ :-[

I am surprised how come "yafayu" and "supadude" who applied and went into processing after you, already completed their oath way back in Jan/Feb 2014 and you and I haven't received any test letter yet.

Did you get any RQ or something? Have you travelled a lot?

Thanks

No RQ yet. CIC Call center agents say everything is "routine" with my aplication.

I did travel - about 2 months in the 3.5 years of my application.

Thank you can you please share the following info:

1. Is it a single or family application?
2. What is your "in-process" date?
3. Did you receive an RQ?

Thanks!

Hi Khokodile,
could you please give some details about your absences from Canada.
What's the longest period? How did you justify that? was it to your home country or somewhere else? what address did u state for those periods? Canada or overseas? did they ask you about that during interview?
Thanks

Hey Goldline, I went to my home(former) country to visit my parents for the most part during my absences. I used their address(overseas) for the absences and the longest period was 2.5months. Yes they actually asked a lot about it and told me multiple CSBA stamps were missing. I just told them exactly when and why i left each time. Just be honest about everything and everything should be okay

Have added Khokodile to the list - thank you for sharing your timeline.

The only update that I have is that I received my ATIP report and my case seems to be normal still. Although I do have an A5 on my record. My local office is confirmed as Scarborough, ON.

Fingers still crossed on an early test date.
