Any online applicants get DM recently? What's your timeline?

Getting a little impatient lately. Applied August 2021 and the last update was test completed April 11 and nothing since.

2 months to renew PR card, at least a month for GCMS notes.

Tracker, last updated June 13, says I'm DM since June 10. Timeline in my signature. But oath is taking too long to get scheduled. No updates since June 13, rather frustrated.

Is ceremony still "not started"? Have you considered sending an email to the Niagara office? I recall one user did that.

Yes. Oath "not started", everything else Complete. I finally did email Niagara last week and only got a response "Your application is currently in queue to receive a notification to appear for ceremony in the coming months"
Others who have emailed their offices (mostly Scarborough but some Niagara as well) have gotten scheduled for oath shortly after. Unfortunately no luck for me, hope there is not something wrong with my application or something.

Jeez... I just had everything but ceremony flip to completed. I guess the wait for DM is over, and a new wait begins.

Congrats! Is your Updated date today and does it list yesterday or a previous day in the history for everything completed?

Most people (seems maybe 90%) get scheduled for oath between day and 3 weeks after DM. The remaining unlucky ones like me wait for who knows how long. I know there are some people who are waiting since December and January.

It was updated today, but the history shows language, prohibitions, and physical presence completed July 13.

Wow, that's quite a long delay. My tracker has consistently shown the Updated date being one business day after the date shown as updated in the history, but yours is like 8 days

Those who had their oath on July 5th. Anyone received their certificate yet?

 

[xtreemboarder]

Been scheduled for Oath August 2. Haven't received email yet, am interested if file still in Niagara Falls.

Awesome, congrats! Let us know when you get the oath email. I'd definitely like to know if Niagara Falls is finally starting to schedule more oaths again as they have been sleeping on me for too long

Just got the email. Unlike the test which came from the Niagara Falls email address, the ceremony invitation is from Saskatoon?... This I did not expect.

That was fast, congrats! Are you in Saskatchewan? I wonder if Niagara Falls is sending apps back to their local offices to schedule oath ... which would explain why mine is taking forever as my local would be Ottawa, the slowest ever!

Based on everything I have seen on this forum (despite everyone sharing their timelines) the process unpredictable. At the start of July I thought the application stalled so I ordered GCMS which have yet to be produced.
