You're supposed to see you're scheduled for it. I don't know what it looks like because I don't have it. I guess you broke my theory!
Well there is no reason to worry in any case. IRCC should resolve the issue eventually. You have received the invitation and should be accommodated accordingly.

My spouse just got done with the oath ceremony this morning, which was very well conducted.
Sent out the signed oath form. Will now wait for the citizenship certificate and then apply for the passport.

Huge thanks to everyone in this group for their support through this process.

Ditto for me. Previously Test was marked completed on Jan 3rd. Now background verification shows completed on Jan 20th. Everything else is In Progress. Fingers crossed for more updates soon.

@echbee so I got an email confirmation from RCMP that the record check results were mailed out by them to IRCC on January 5th. Any new update on your end?
 
Does the background verification must be completed first before the test invite or the other way around?
Not necessary. I received a test invite, like a few other may online applicants, almost a month before receiving a request to submit fingerprints. My background check is still in progress.

Hi guys, I'm new here - but have been following updates regularly.

Here is my information:

Paper Application
Application Received: May 27, 2021
Location : Toronto
AOR: Sept 8, 2021
In process: Dec 7, 2021 ( on ECAS after test was completed). App in progress on new tracker: 9th Sept, 2021
Background check completed : Oct 8, 2021
Test invitation Update (in tracker): Nov 26, 2021
Test invite : Dec 3, 2021
Test window: Dec 3, 2021 to Dec 23, 2021
Test taken: Dec 5, 2021
Test status updated to completed in tracker : Dec 7, 2021

Language Skills, Prohibitions, Physical Presence still in progress.

Application Status is still "in progress" , Citizenship ceremony status still "Not started".

Office - Scarborough.

Question 1. : My ECAS showed 'in process' only after the citizenship test was set to complete. However, the test details or test completion information still dont show up in ECAS. I called IRCC to verify and the agent mentioned he cant see it at his end either. Is this normal?

Test was set to complete in the new tracker on the 7th of Dec, 2021.

Question 2. : Do we have insight on whether dm and subsequent oath ceremonies are triggered specifically in line with when the test was taken?

Thanks all, and please update the sheet for me! :)

1. Test details don't show in ECAS. I believe ECAS only shows In Process, Decision Made and Closed (after the oath ceremony).
So yes, it is normal.

2. No one knows this. Someone got DM 7 days after his test, while some people are still waiting more than 6 months later. It probably just depends on the officer handling your application.

What exactly is the difference between Prohibition and Background check? I looked up the link on the website and they're both the same. lol so confusing. If anyone knows please kindly explain. Thanks.
