Have you sent a webform? Called? Asked your MP to contact them?

Looks like a lot of us have received the invitation for citizenship test & still have not received the official email invitation with instructions.

You can take the test if your test start data has reached just, Go to this link

https://ct-tc.apps.cic.gc.ca/?lang=en

Login with your application number and UCI and you will be given step by step guidance for taking the test.

Before the test just go through all the steps explained here

I doubt "alot of us" is an accurate statement. Not many people from May have received the test invitation letter.

Got a request for fingerprints today. Is this normal? I last submitted them during my PR application in 2017. Anyone know how long it takes for CIC to receive them once done?

Yes its normal.
Usually takes upto few weeks once you submit them. Do it at the earliest.

@Shiva91 i requested for the edit access for tracker. Please provide me.thanks.

By the way, in case it’s helpful - there’s a tracker that you can use and edit entirely on your own without having to request access. I used it during my citizenship last year and it helped with processing time insights. There’s quite a few May 2023 cases on there that are all mostly in progress now https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/canadian-citizenship-processing-tracker

I just got 2 updates on my tracker. One for citizenship test scheduled and the other for ceremony scheduled. Is this a glitch given I haven’t cleared the test yet?
So far background check is cleared and everything else shows as in progress including ceremony.
