Calgary applicants, I just called CIC and after trying for more than 1 hour was able to get through to an agent. They checked that my background, security and criminality checks are completed and I am waiting for the test in the queue. There is a waiting list as told to me by the agents and I should recieve the test within the next 3-4 weeks at the maximum. The agent explained to me that once all the documents and checks are complete (effective 03 Oct 2018) and the file status does not show any "Pending Status", then the file is sent to another agent who schedules the test dates based on resources available and people on leave etc. So, for all those who are waiting, stay there and do not get worried and panic.
