No reason to freak out. Just be patient. Other people's experiences and fast processing times should be encouraging, rather than a reason to go into panic mode. 24 months is the official processing time, and the fact that you are already done with the test so early in the process should be a reason to celebrate. Besides, everyone's process is unique and a multiplicity of factors may either expedite or delayed it, so there is no point in comparing yourself with others.vinaypuri said:So Guys, I called CIC and told them that I know a person who did test after me and got the Oath invite and not sure why I am not getting.
She was nice and said your file is complete with no updates. Citizenship apps take 24 months to complete and yours is a year old app. So basically, they are not saying anything... it is at the mercy of people who work at CIC Scarborough... not sure where they have thrown my file from the pile.
Wonder if writing a letter to Scarborough office will help?
I agree with Serendipity... I think part of the problem is we are always worried because CIC can make a mess of any legit app.Serendipity said:No reason to freak out. Just be patient.

For instance, your application was received 8 months later than mine, yet you got to write the test before I did. Relax, take a deep breath and be happy to know that you are just weeks away from the Oath Ceremony - two months max. It is around the corner!
S.
its out of date.. we have folks in the forum with Oath dates of Feb 13, Feb 14 etcJabuela said:I was checking online at CIC website and I couldn't see any ceremony dates after Feb, 7 in Scarborough does that mean that there aren't any ceremonies going on now, or is it that they just didn't update.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood, I thought you meant you'd be taking oath exactly 3 weeks after testing. Well at least you know you will be receiving it soon. (I know the wait is terrible) but it will happen.vinaypuri said:Hi MrsEmondSr, I called but thy did not provide any insight into oath date... so still waiting for ecase update or letter
I think you should appreciate your timeline (based on you signature, you applied in 2013) as people like me applied before you and we had test the same time as you (I did not call CIC to complain about others getting their test before me, though I applied before them)!vinaypuri said:Hi MrsEmondSr, I called but thy did not provide any insight into oath date... so still waiting for ecase update or letter
