Hello Guys,

I became Canadian Citizen on Jan 26. My ECAS status changed to "Complete". It has been a long road. Although, we do not know each other personally, but this forum did become a part in one of the most important parts of our lives. I wish everyone good luck with your pursuits and life.
congratulations for your successful long distance travel with this forum. keep praying for the applicants following you.

Hi All - Finally got my test invite for Feb 1, 2016 at CIC Hamilton. 4.5 months after IP!

Please share your experience of test at CIC Hamilton? Much appreciated!
All the best! Looking closely at your timeline, because I'm from Burlington as well!

I did my test at the Ottawa office on Dec. 3 -- since then, no DM, no mail, no nothing...still showing "In Process" and absolutely no other updates....

Any thoughts??? I'm a little anxious because I don't even have a DM yet...?

Hello..looking for people who didn't get a DM after a test.
I had my test on Dec 3, and nothing since then. Ecas still showing "in process" with the last line being the test invite. Nothing else.

Any thoughts? Similar situations?

You don't need to worry about this. I did my test on Nov 26, 2015 and my status was showing "in process" since then. Last Friday I checked, it changed to "Decision Made". And on Sunday I checked again, it showed I am invited for oath on Feb 16. The time of status changing to "Decision Made" may vary from individual applicants.

BTW, I no longer have access to the May 2015 spreadsheet, what changed?

Thank you, that's a little reassuring. I hope it's just a matter of time *fingers crossed* - What's your local office?

Thanks again ari5323 :)

What I meant is, should we take extra documents that support our presence in Canada other than those listed on the invitation letter? Can anyone please share their experience for the interview documents?

Thank you.
The documents mentioned in your invitation letter should be sufficient. I was asked for my health card and driver's licence. The interviewer then checked the stamps in my passport against what I wrote in my application form. In all it took 15 minutes for the entire process.

Good luck with your interview.
