when do you guys receive your test invite with the instructions? I have the window on the tracker but no email instructions been sent yet.. window august 19-sept 8th
If I were you, I would call/ email IRCC to let them know that I haven't received any email for the test.



However, I believe you should still be able to take exam without email with your application number and UCI number on the website.



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



After you input your application number and UCI they will send you a verification email to your registered email id ( the one that you applied through) you have to verify your identity and follow the simple instructions on the screen.



your exam time starts from 1200AM on the day you are scheduled from and ends at 11:59 PM on the last day of the window period.

Ghost update was for Background check completion, it seems some are receiving test invite before BGC and some after, any clue why and how long people should expect to get test invite after background check completion?
My partner got test invite 3 days after BGC had been completed

I also did not receive any emails yet. My test window starts Aug 22nd and the update on the tracker says that my test invite was sent Aug 16.

I am outside Canada so need to send an email to the address from the test invite that I did not receive yet. I'm going to wait a day or 2 and see if I get it.

My AOR is Feb 8 and still do not have background check or even a ghost update. Looks like IRCC has moved to updates for applicants with AORs one week after me.

Does IRCC update applications status once everyday or it could be updated anytime throughout the day?
I believe that any changes done on your file is reflected the following day. To answer your question, you'll only see an update once a day.

Looking at some of the trends on the tracker for online October applicants, a number of them (7) got their decision made within 1 month from completing their test! And the Oath invite followed few days from that!

Let's hope it'll be the case for us here who completed their test in August!

I completed the test in April, and never got an update since.
I guess it's depending on the AOR and not on the duration test-»OATH

Oh yes, there is very little logic in this system, but by looking at that batch of October Online applicants, it could be a possibility that Nov Online applicants will move in a similar fashion. But it's just a guess and wishful thinking! Let's see what happens!
