There were no concerns. Before the pandemic they interviewed everyone. They stopped it but now they are starting to interview a few applicants. The interview is just to look at the documents. Most persons will be done the interview in less than 5 minutes if there's no issues.
Email received today, March 17. It's an online ceremony.
Language skills, physical presence and prohibitions. They're always updated at the same time, hence the acronym.

Man I feel really depressed and sad.
My application has been completed on 22 of February and curently awaiting Oath (not started) just a ghost update on March 2nd.
I called the IRCC phone line 13 days ago and was answered by a very demeaning and scolding agent who said that just to check the email and I am within the processing period.
I waited 13 days and called again, and this time the same agent answered, and she goes like when was the last time you called, what was the answer then? it is the same answer now! and then went on a lecture on how my process is, the lecture was another 10 minutes.
I explained to her, that I understand, and I am just anxious and can't wait for the new phase of my life. She really brought me down, she made me feel... I do not know how to describe that, she was very vindictive.
Not all agents are like that, most are amazing, uplifting. Just my luck that in 12 days period I spoke with the same agent.
She reminded me of the country I fled from, the phone ended and I was blank for 30 minutes.
I hope these agents know how important this step for us. This agent must have known, she sounded like an immigrant, so I am sure she can connect with me, but these two times she did not.
Currently trying to uplift my mood and energy, my toddler will wake up soon and I want to be fun dad around her.

it is not like they are kicking you out soon if you dont get it.. learn how to have patience and do something else in your life dont make this the center of your life now as it wont change much after you get it.
Cheer up. I totally understand how you feel. My application was approved 2wks before yours and I'm still waiting too. So I can totally relate to your feelings. The agent I spoke to last week was super nice, and told me to wait till June before calling back lol, although he reassured me that everything was okay and they just have some backlog in some zones. Funny enough, I ended the call feeling a lot better. So my advice is, don't sweat it. It will soon be here. Just hang in there. You'll look back at today and smile.
Not sure how you asked but the agent probably believes your impatient. You might want to give a better reason or try to explain why rather than wanting to start the new phase of life.
How did you get an agent to answer? I've tried couple of times and no one answers my call.. what extension are you using?
Yes some of the new agents are frustrated and provide answers in very bad manner. Try calling again in couple of days, hope you get answers then.
I am doing my best, I wont call or inquire until end of May/June.
