Hi, not sure if I've ever been added to the tracker. Applied from Ottawa arrived July 6th, AOR November 4th, In progress Jan 14th, background completed February 14th and test invite received June 9th for June 15 to July 6th. Single applicant with 1460 days approx. Cheers and hope everyone gets some news soon.

Also, I only see this update on the new tracker but never received an email about it etc. I guess that might be scheduled to arrive in a few days?

Hi Raj,
Test status updated to completed today. Now I am not sure what will be the next step, Interview or Oath..
I was going through FB page and found that countless people from Mississauga office, who completed their tests from Jan to May, are still waiting for update.

I know people should be excited with getting tests but it seems like an endless blackhole with everyone waiting for Oaths, which likely would take longer as you need officers for interview and Oath while test is mostly automated. Now we have endless backlogs at each stage.

I am waiting for a while as well post test. If you look at the spreadsheet you will see people are easily waiting 4+ months after completing test with no response.

I've updated the spreadsheet!

Well, some people get interviews after the test (usually, the invite is sent within a week after the test status is set to "Completed". If you do not get an interview, then the next status you'll be looking for is in ECAS. Your ECAS will be updated with "Decision Made" status. In the new dashboard, this will mean that Physical Presence, Language and Prohibitions will be set to "Completed".

After this, the "Citizenship Ceremony" status will be the only status that shows "Not started". Then the wait begins. Test invites have increased but looks like there is still a huge backlog for people waiting for oath. I hope they resume In-Person oath ceremonies as well AND also host online citizenship ceremonies. This will help clear the backlog.

Anyway, your "Citizenship Ceremony" will then be set to "In Progress". Soon after, the status will change to "Scheduled" and you'll receive a ceremony date. I'm not sure, assume it would take 3 - 5 months after all statuses (except Ceremony) are set to completed on the new dashboard.

Hi, everytime I request to be added to the spreadsheet no-one ever does! Am I asking in the wrong way? Apologies if so. Cheers

So my wife passed her test on June 7, 2021, and TODAY it has been updated to “COMPLETED” , does that mean they validated the test?
