So I called IRCC a couple times in the last two weeks. Both agents who I spoke to said my application is "Test Ready". But no test invite yet.
I went to Kitchener IRCC office on Friday July 23 during business hours but all doors were locked, no one answered the phone outside and I saw they'd posted a note saying "They're not accepting in-person/walk ins yet".
I emailed Raj Saini's office (Kitchener Center MP), but did not hear anything back from them.
Lastly, I've ordered GCMS notes and will wait to se what it says.
All in all, there's really nothing we can do but wait because unfortunately there is no way to connect with any officers and there's absolutely no clarity with how these applications are being processed. But please do submit your feedback forms which might trigger corporate to look into processing times of this specific office. Good luck to us all!
