Almost three months have passed since I successfully passed citizenship test. Background check is still in process. I applied in June 2021, paper applicant. Not sure what to do, very disheartened.

Same here - but I think this is not unusual. Others who I know when through the process in the past year said it was ~4 months after their test before anything changed. You aren't alone - most people (including myself) who submitted in June 2021 have not had a decision made on their case.

Hi all,

My test window opens tomorrow, but I still haven't received my test invite email. On the tracker it says test window March 31 - April 21. The tracker was update last Wednesday.

Anyone else had similar experience?

It went to spam folder for a friend of mine. You always can use the following link to appear for your test in your test window even if you don’t receive an email :

Every case can be different, but the only way I can think of to estimate this is look at other peoples stats in the Google Doc. My application is assigned to the Scarborough office, and it looks like there's ~6-8 week wait between testing complete to DM.

Hey guys,

I submitted my application June 1st. Background was done on January 27 and test completed Feb 3. Nothing after. I submitted a web form to request urgent processing as my father has serious health issues and provided them with medical reports and told them that I need to travel asap. It has been two weeks and no response on my request. How long does it take them to get back on web form requests?
