Is there a number to call to check the status of my application? I can see that many (who applied later than me) have started receiving test dates but I only have background check completed in the system.
telephone: 1-888-242-2100 (in Canada only) They have allocated some resources to attend the Afghan cases, so you will probably have to be persistent and call many times to get to an agent. The agent will be able to see what the dashboard is showing to you.

Timing varies as per your local office processing the application, some offices are quicker than others.
 
The local office is indicated in the email address from where you received the test invite email, there are three letters after DN, if the three letters are MIS (Mississauga) or SCR (Scarborough), NFL (Niagara Falls), etc.
Awesome!

Im Mississauga office.

Thanks!

Mine is also the MTL office. I got all sections completed today, exactly one month after my test was completed. That didn’t feel so slow. Let’s see if the oath invitation will be long from now :)
I wish hope & pray you get an oath invite soon my friend, us to follow in your heels. But I’m not getting my hopes up on this office until I get my oath.
 
Hey everyone!
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1200
Application: Solo
Application sent: March 23rd, 2021 (Online)
AOR - 18th August 2021
Invitation to online test - 3rd November 2021
Completed test - 5th November

Now just going to wait. Took the test within 48 hours notice. Big fan of the Richmond public library questions, the Canada citizenship app (well worth the $1.99 for one week) and the discover Canada reading itself. It's also on YouTube if you want to listen at 1.5x.

Hello everyone.

my tracker got updated today:
Language skills, physical presence and prohibitions are completed.
Only thing left is the Oath Ceremony.

I hope the oath invitation arrives quickly. From the spreadsheet, the timing for invitation seems to be all over the place - some get invited a couple days or weeks later, some are still waiting after months…

the office processing my application is Montreal :)

Hi, wondering how did you know your office is Montreal? anywhere to find the information?

If you have received test invite you can find the local processing office in the email address from where the invite came, if you have not received the test invite you can try calling IRCC or getting ATIP/GCMS notes, for the last one it is taking from 30 to 60 days to receive them. But if you are in Calgary your local office might be Calgary which is one of the slowest offices to send test invites to paper applicants. I am a Calgary applicant as well and I am not expecting to receive the test invite this year, I think they had recently started to send test invites to 2020 September citizenship applicants, which means it will take them another 6-7 months to get to us.
 
My citizenship test has been updated as completed on November 1st (gave test on oct 30th)

Also my test email came from this address:
IRCC.WestCitizenshipEApp-EappOUESTCitoyennete.IRCC@cic.gc.ca

which office is it from?
I have updated the spreadsheet, well some others have received test invites from that email address and it is different from the paper applicants, it appears they have a different email address for online applicants, it is hard to tell which is the office.

Sounds good. Thank you!
