It's great to hear that Mississauga is talking about weeks between test and oath. Makes the rather long wait for the test less significant.

Wait till Mar 20 then give them a call since it passed the 12 month processing rule. You will have ground to get some real answers from them. If you call before, very dependent on agents, you will likely get a general response to wait till 12 month has passed.

Use below link and submit online Enquiry because your application exceeded the average time to receive exam invitation, 12 month is full processing time and by 11 months you should be in exam phase. You will receive reply within maximum 10 working days, Personally I think before that you will get reply with exam invitation.

The CIC agent told me that 12 months is from the date they received the application and it all depends on location, family or not, etc... I called them twice. They were very polite and professional. The agent told me that if I didn't receive a test invite within the 12 months timeframe then I can send an online form.

You were at the same test date and time as me then! There was a lot of people in the test - my decision was changed to DM Feb 17th too - i got 20/20 and I have to agree it was a very smooth operation all in all I was in and out within 30 mins

Yes, they do manage their work in professional way and silky-smooth process, backlog which generated due to the new law was huge after October 2017 that is why processing time reached 12 months. All the best in your test.

quick question: when the status is changed to decision made, does it say on ECAS right away when the Oath ceremony is?
