"We’re currently finalizing most applications we received between

March 3 and 9, 2019 ?

If your application is complex, it may take us longer to process it."

Saw this on their website. Guess they are really backlogged huh.
Yet, some December 2020 applicants are done and dusted.. grrr.. (Not angry at you, angry at their sluggish status; what the heck have they been doing for the last year? Wish I could have taken that much time off and gotten paid..)

It seems like we won’t be getting out of this “CIC MAZE” until next year.

I agree, this endless wait is unreal. I don't get why this entire process is so slow, like what is the issue? Surely it is just not the primitive systems they use.

Congratulate me guys! It's been a year since I've applied...
I applied exactly one year ago.. I remember I was racing with time and insanely stressed. I did my taxes one last time and everything was in order. Was making plans, so many dreams. If somebody told me that “Hey next year exactly today you will be waiting for your test still”, I would just laugh hahhwwkhahskshahahshhshs, I was thinking I would be Canadian summer/fall 2020 and that’s it. Tomorrow join the event in Twitter guys. I’m beyond DONE.

Where in Winnipeg did you book the fingerprint appointment?

As my spouse received it but I did not received FP request and we applied together and also landed together.

The email which I got it states I need to send it to CPC Sydney.

Hi Everyone,

My timeline;

March 15th Application
October 31st AOR
December 1st Started Processing
March 2nd Fingerprint Request

I have few questions;

1. Is getting Fingerprint request quite common? or its due to some reason.
2. Does this mean I am close to getting test date or it means this will be further delayed?
3. What are your expectation for test invites for March applicants?

Thanks
