Nothing yet. I can not understand what can cause the delay, My status has not been updated since June 2012, any time I call CIC they are just brushing me off and not telling me anything. They have not responded even to the email of my MP. It's like they lost my file and don't know what to say.
When one applies for citizenship they have to make sure that the applicant meets all the points needed.- Being permanent resident, living in Canada certain period of time, not being in trouble with the law, to pass the test proving adequate knowledge of the language and history of Canada,... I meet all this, I live in the same address since I set foot in Canada, /been out only 45 days in 6 years and only 7 days before I sent my application, at the time was here more than 3 months than needed/, never been burden to the system, my husband files our taxes every year. If there is anything they want me to prove why don't they just tell me?
Things are undoubtedly getting better timewise, yet the expectation of having the Oath within just days or even a few weeks after the test may not be completely realistic given that the system, as we all know, is still quite deficient.
The text below is taken from the CIC Help Center page, where they address the issue at hand:
"How long will I wait between my citizenship test and the ceremony?
We will give you the results of your test right after you take it. If you meet all the requirements for citizenship, including passing the citizenship test, we will invite you to a ceremony to take the oath of citizenship. This ceremony will normally take place within six months after you pass the test."

CIC's answer - "within six months after you pass the test" - may indeed be an unwanted one, but the fact that many are getting invitations to the Oath Ceremony soon after the test should, instead, be very encouraging for all. This basically shows you that there is certainly no reason to desperate if you haven't received anything after, say, two to three months or even more than that.

I hear you 'S' ... easier said then done
...when one sees everyone else's coming so fast I wonder what's wrong with my file .. or are they waiting on some other information and whole lot of other unwanted thoughts... for us immigrants this is the last step in journey.. don't want any hurdles at this point.
But I am patiently waiting, I m thinking if I do not hear back within 2 Months, I will write a letter to CIC Scarborough... During the test they said everyone will receive oath invitation within two Months...

Yes, you are totally right. If everyone is waiting same time as the rest, there wouldn't be this frustration. It gives you example that it's possible to get it soon, but since you don't, there must be a problem. We are fed up dealing with CIC, and when you pass the test you finally relax and say to yourself, 'that's it- no more waiting, in a few weeks just the formality of the ceremony and I will be Canadian. And then you get disappointed, it turns out that it's not over after all.
