Hello Members,
Can anyone advise how they prioritize Oath invitation? Is it based on the Application date or Test/Interview Date?

I am April 2018 Applicant & Test Interview Cleared in October 2018 ( Decision Made – October 2018). Still waiting for oath invitation. Need to travel soon but my PR card already expired Nov 2018.

I am really stressed !! Can anyone advise please?? When can I expect Oath ?

Looking at the spreadsheet, it is random although for Scarborough the averagetime from test /DM to oath is 3 months .

Looks like its a slow week.
 
I can see in Scarboroug six oath ceremony happening every week in row ( Tue -2, Wed-2 & Thursday-2). But I haven’t heard anything yet in my case. Any updates??
 
Some October Test/DM candidates I personally know were called for Oath last weekend.

So your DM is the day after the test, when did the status change from IP to DM? (What time of the day: morning? Evening?) was your test in the morning or afternoon?
 
I applied for Cit on Oct 12, 2017. Due to a name change, it became non-routine. Name change req was approved in November 2018 (as I can login with the correct change and GCMS) and then file transferred to Scarborough. Then I was asked fingerprints in Nov end which were provided first week of December.

No news after that update. GCMS updates from mid Nov show the following:

App Status - Open
App Status Reason - In Progress
Knowledge, Residence, Language, Prohibition are all not started.
Criminality - In progress.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I am basically in the same boat except that I didn’t change my name and didn’t get FP request and am not “non routine “

But stil not done yet

Applied Oct '17, In process since Nov 17. My application is routine: no document/FP requested, no name/address change, not even test yet. I am speechless.....
You are not alone.

The status changed the next day morning after test when I checked.
Not sure at what time the status changed.
Test was in the morning
