May 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[harirajmohan]

Hi May 2021 applicants,

Application type: online (single)
Location: Vancouver
Application date: May 23, 2021
AOR: September 3
FP Request: January 19, 2022
Test invite: January 26, 2022

My test status has been updated to completed in the tracker since February 3, 2022. However, my language skills are still showing as "in progress" even though I got 19/20 in the test and provided a Master's Degree from a Canadian university along with my application.

Is this normal? Shouldn't my language skills be updated to complete now that I've passed the test? I've come across several cases on this forum where people's language skills had been set to complete right after finishing the test. By the looks of it, I should expect an interview soon...

Any input would be appreciated.

Language, prohibitions and physical presence are usually updated when the officer decides to make the decision on the case file. So once these are completed then you would see DM on your file. So these are mostly done way after the test. Nowadays it takes months long to get to DM stage after test. May be for online apps its little soon but takes time after test though for DM.

Similar situation in terms of education + also submitted my IELTS, degree certificate and transcript + WES docs that I had submitted during my PR application. Have all applicants historically been called for an interview (trend wise) if language requirements weren't set to complete post test?
@harirajmohan and @rajkamalmohanram - would be great if you could provide insight?

Not all being called for interview. Not often being called for interview for language skills.
Usually interview is for verifying the documents(and rarely for checking language conversation skills).

Yes lets not worry about language requirements as main worry for all of us is processing time.
