Application type: Paper
Location: Port Moody, BC
Physical presence: 1105 days
Application: Family of 4
Application submitted: Oct 4 2021
AOR: Jan 21 2022
IP: Jan 24 2022
BG completed: Feb 8 2022
Test invite: Jun 23 2022
Test completed (spouse passed on 2nd attempt): Aug 22 2022
Language, Physical presence and Prohibitions completed: Sep 26 2022
Decision made in ECAS: Sep 26 2022

However, our children's applications still show In Progress for each category (BG, Language, Prohibitions, Physical presence, Test) - is that expected?

Does anyone know how long to wait for Oath invite?
You should get oath invite in a month's time

Hi fellow applicants, I’m new to this forum, so here’s my timeline:

ONLINE APPLICATION (CALGARY RESIDENT)
  • Application Submitted: 10/28/2021
  • AOR: 01/26/2022
  • Status in Progress: 01/27/2022
  • Ghost Update: 07/28/2022
  • Background Completed: 07/29/2022
  • Test Scheduled: 08/03/2022
  • Received Test Invite: 08/05/2022
  • Test Taken: 08/27/2022
  • Test Status Completed: 08/30/2022
  • Language Skills Completed: 09/16/2022
  • Physical Presence, Prohibitions Still in Progress
  • Oath not Started
Office Email: IRCC.WestCitizenshipEApp-EappOUESTCitoyennete.IRCC@cic.gc.ca

I do have a question: has anyone heard of Language Skills being checked off first? If yes, roughly how long of a time period should I be expecting for Physical Presence and Prohibitions to be completed and DM? I know the oath invite itself comes a month or two after DM.

Thank you all!

Since its been around 3 months from the citizenship test , is it appropriate enough gap to reach out to IRCC ?
how is everyone reaching out ? any recommendation

1. Replying back to the test invitation email ? any specific format ?
2. Raising a webform
3. Any other communication channel
