I am just saying what I heard. It is not bullet proof. I am sorry if I annoyed somebody or mislead. I heard this and I thought of sharing it. I noticed that there are 6 Oath Ceremonies in August and I was surprised when I heard the story of 12 weeks
I am sorry buddy. as I said with another post. That's what I heard but it does not mean that it is going to happen. I hope you get your citizenship soon:)
Don't worry buddy. I'm sure nobody is annoyed with the info provided. It helps with our perspectives. I hope we all get it soon :)

Hey you didn't annoy or mislead anyone. And again thanks for sharing the info. I somehow feel that the officers that interview applicants try to give a wider window for oath invitation so that people don't get upset when they are not invited earlier. That is all I meant. Fingers crossed we all get everything sorted out and have the passport in our hands.

Hello everyone

I have done my citizenship exam earlier today and I got 20/20
The officer spent with me less than 5 minutes and then she said that she will send me an oath invitation for August 22. I will confirm if this is the date of my oath when I get the letter.
Good luck everyone!

Hi Han, that's right, looks like we are on the same boat by the way!
I also applied from London (application received Aug 3, 2018, AOR Oct 16), and my 'in process' on ECAS is also from November 20, no news since.
Hi edk,

Have you received the invitation to appear for test?

Hi edk,

Hi Han, nope. This is painful, but judging by other people's dates, we will be called for the test only in September, late August if we are lucky.
That is 10 months since the "started processing" date :(

I am thinking of a trip down to US in December as well. Let's hope we get the passports by then.
