how long does it take to complete the language, presence and prohibition after test for paper family application ? thx
I was tempted to say centuries knowing how fast some offices work, but it could take a few months. I passed the test in Nov 2021 and no updates since then. Best of luck!

Hey guys, i gave my test before receiving the test invitation email. Everything on tracker shows completed except Oath ceremony is not started. Is there anyway i can get to know my application processing office. My AOR says case processing center is Sydney. Could that be my application processing office?

We have very similar timelines:

Application type: online (single)
Location: Vancouver
May 23, 2021: Application date
September 3, 2021: AOR
January 19, 2022: FP request
January 26, 2022: Test Invitation
February 3, 2022: Test status updated to "complete"
February 15, 2022: FP results received by IRCC
February 16, 2022: Background check status updated to "complete"
March 4, 2022 - passport copies requested by IRCC.
March 8, 2022 - I submitted my passport copies.

I'm still waiting to hear back from IRCC regarding my passport copies... Language skills, physical presence, and prohibitions are still in progress. The waiting game has been very demoralizing.
If I may ask, how many periods of absence did you have away from Canada?

Probably not. I moved from Toronto to Halton and my office stayed as Scarborough, didn't move to Hamilton etc. That being said, there's no real predictability on how IRCC works

Language skills, physical presence, prohibitions were all updated to completed on April 4th, 2022.

Citizenship ceremony is still not started.

Does anyone have a rough idea of what the next steps are? Should I be expecting to get my citizenship by this summer?
Congrats! Would you mind sharing your timeline? I would get it added to the spreadsheet

Answer to your question - it pretty much depends on your VO

Hello, hope someone has some insight on this one. Since Sept 2022 that I had my Background Verification completed no movement has happened on my application since then, no tests, no language, nothing. With housing prices over the roof and now Alberta starting to undergo the same housing issues as Ontario and BC, has anyone gone through having to move out of Canada while waiting for an application. My understanding is that such move is possible, but want to check if anyone has gone through this.

Yes, That is what I see on AOR email attachment.
Oh I see. I am in Halifax and submitted online but my application is been processed in Montreal. I think the test email gives a clearer picture of where it’s been processed. My AOR also came from Sydney
