Hi to all,
I just have a very general question to all...
In determining whether a citizenship applicant satisfies the residency requirement (>= 1095 days), does the citizenship officer only look at the recent 4-year period from the date of the application OR is the citizenship officer permitted to go back to any 4 or 5 year period in the applicant's past? Do you know which Operations Manual are the citizenship officers using for determining if the applicant satisfies the residency requirements for citizenship? Thanks.

It is clearly mentioned in the application guide that only the four years immediately preceding your signing date on the application form are considered.
Which means, on the date you sign your application form, exclusively, you must have already had 1095 days in the past four years.
An update concerning my oath ceremony. I passed my citizenship test in Montreal on April 14th and the agent then had told me to wait 3 to 5 weeks for Oath. Today I called the call centre and was informed that they had sent me a letter yesterday to attend oath ceremony on the 26th of May, so I should be receiving it really soon. I guess it took 6 weeks since the test. I think this is great news for Montreal applicants. It seems they're getting to the oath much faster now. Good luck to all.
Congrats,
This is good news.
I called today too, but got typical answer: 6 months from test date. If I don't received until 9th Oct. I should call and follow my ceremony. But there was not any ceremony invitation in my fine so far.

No news either, didn't bother calling CIC yet, 10+ minutes waiting...
From the citizenship application sheet, a few applicants with email AOR who took test in Feb 2014 just got their oath letter.
My Wife finally received her test invitation for Edmonton and less then 11 months from receipt of her Application! ;D We did nothing special aside from wait and have a well prepared application. Good luck to everyone else! Timeline below:

So, have you replied to the letter that was sent dated October 2nd, 2014?
If yes and if your wife has received test invite, then e-cas may take few days to update. If it does not update then don't worry, sometimes e-cas does not update.
I received test invite and passed the test and still the e-cas has not been updated with test information.
