Yes I have called them and Tell me everything in your file is up to date and just waiting for finalization. That’s why I am bit confused why is it taking this long it’s such a headache and so frustrating
If you want to get better insight, you can try contacting your MP or request ATIP notes so you can understand where it might be stuck.

Tried contacting the MP they got the same answer as I did. Haven’t applied for ATIP that’s my next mission now
May I ask about how many days in Canada did you apply with ?

and about how many absences from Canada did you have?

I applied on March 7 2019, in process since May 7 2019...still no test invite as of today. Called the service center twice and everything looks good (as I was told, all background checks are done and I'm just in line for the test). Requested atip notes a few times - nothing changed/updated since January 2020.

Where are you at? Which office is your file at? I'm with the Scarborough office...from what I read on Facebook group and here, Toronto single people's cases are moving extremely slow...

The waiting is the hardest part because we have no clue what to expect people that have applied after us have gotten oaths and tests. I don’t know it’s hard :(

On your 2nd page for your notes: is your knowledge status, "Knowledge: In Progress"?

I think it might mean that some of your clearances are still pending, possibly security.
call center guys said the security checks are done :( they also said all my background checks are done. From what I gathered from the notes, they ran security 3 times between Jul 2019 and Jan 2020...I'm also in the "biopr" group which is bio-data exempted so I was never asked for FP....this waiting game is bananas

What i see is that it all mostly purely depends on the officer. So they can either finish quick or delay it in most cases and can verify one time or multiple times. So we will have to keep counting the days on when the lucky day comes for finishing each stage. They simplified the process to remove multiple level approvals but now the applications are getting stuck at that very one level too.
