Hi All,

many people submitting paper applications in Mar 2022 have received test invites but for me since nov there is no update.
AOR date is 9th Feb. the only mistake was submitting online it seems.

Any idea why online applications are ignored if all are paying same fees.

any people having online application received any invites recently?

How do you know that March 2022 getting test invites? Damn that’s crazy! Honestly, this is ridiculous, especially that we all paid the same fee! Such double standards.

On the bright side, there seems to be some movement and October and November online applicants are getting invites recently.

I completed my test in April, and since then, Scarborough is sleeping on it. Don't get too excited if you get the test invitation from them.
Yeah… my file is in the two worst offices it seems. Sydney and Scarborough.
Is Sydney your primary and Scarborough secondary?

ALL citizenship applications go to CPC-Sydney before they are transferred to other hard working offices. CPC-Sydney is the office that is delaying ALL online applications by not starting the background checks and transferring the files. Then Scarborough keeps the files in their rotting pile after the test.

I don't see your name in the spreadsheet, what is your timeline? Aren't you done with everything other than Language/Prohibitions?

Congrats for the test invite. May I ask you a question please? I am also processed at Sydney/Niagra Falls. When did you get the ghost update on your tracker? I just received mine today July 14. My AOR is Jan 21, 2022 (I am Oct 28 online applicant). How long it takes to get the test invite after the ghost update?
No. I did not get any update until the tracker was updated with the test invitation. I got the test email on the ext day.
