Please update -
Online test 26th (passed same day). It came on 25th but I had to sit for 26th as it was instructed.

So you only got 1 day to take the test? Wow!

Good job man, congratulations. If everybody could take a week for preparation, things would have moved twice as fast for all of us.

No. I actually had 21 days from 26th. However, I just gave it right away.

Thanks, I just did few online tests and read the book. It wasn't that hard. Now, I am not sure how long it will take for the interview.

He probably just took the test as soon as he got the invite. That's what I would do! haha

Very well done!! If people do it faster instead of waiting till the last minute, more ppl can get invites. You just helped others reduce their anxiety levels. The pilot program allows only 5000 invites at any time. The faster the ppl do the test after invites, better it is for others waiting for tests!!

I thought everyone would do it faster right? Unless they want to memorize the whole book and take full 21 days for the xm.

If IRCC was more reliable with its timeline, then yes. Applicants will be more readily prepared and encouraged to take the test sooner rather than later. BUT since nobody knows when they will get invitated, it's impossible to retain the information under such uncertain timeline even if you read the booklets so many times. There's also no indication whatsoever that the sooner you take the exam, the more applicants will get invitated. IRCC works on its own timeline irrespective of how “quicker” you get done with the exam. So I don't believe there is a direct correlation as you implied.

That’s totally disappointing reply from RCMP. Roughly 120 days for the report!!!! That’s a very looooooong time!! Don’t know why why why ???
I found on a Facebook forum someone October 2020 applicant posted that he got test invite yesterday, March 24,2021 !! Not sure what is the procedure for them to finalize the applications!!

120 days only if there is a fingerprint match, else its 5-10 days plus 1 week for mailing to IRCC.
So supposed there is no match IRCC will receive the fingerprint in 3-4 weeks max.

 

[ttttt]

Yes, I plan on writing to them again in 3 weeks or so to check on the status.
Once these guys are done, I'll have to follow up with IRCC as well on the invites.

Good luck for everything brother! Very slow process like snail!!
