It is good that he finally got DM after 1.5 years. But I applied earlier and still have not received any updates and that is the surprising part. My application is very similar to van1616 as I am from Vancouver and single application as well.
My AOR is on 27 Sep 2019 and in process since 1 Nov 2019. I received an invite to do the test on 30 Jan 2020 and scheduled it to be on 26 Mar 2020. Two weeks before my test, they cancelled it. So shouldn't I be among the first group of people to get invited to do the online test? But yet I have not had any updates ever since. When I contacted IRCC as well as my local MP for help, IRCC kept saying that they are only processing urgent applications currently. But clearly, they are being very inconsistent and unfair in how they prioritize applications.
Unless you know another applicant’s education level, background checks, number of times left Canada and to where, medical, etc then you can’t really compare your application other than the time you applied and that will only give you an estimate on when you might get a test invite.
A *lot* of people had their tests cancelled and the online test is still in the pilot phase. The IRCC was very clear that only a limited number of people would get an invite and it would be a mix of people who have high priority and cancelled tests.
We do not have any evidence that the IRCC has been unfair or inconsistent. We simply don’t have enough info to make that call. If everything keeps moving smoothly, they will increase the number of invites. Hopefully, everyone will get an invite in the upcoming months.
So surprised at how fast that went. Thank God!
