Decision made today 29/07
For me and my wife

Test date 12th June
No interview...
No passport request...

Good luck to all of you!
Congrats to all. Let's hope we see many more DMs and Oaths soon.


I've got (an extra) long weekend, so I am signing off now and will try and avoid checking the tracker till Tuesday. Have a great weekend everyone, and here's looking forward to some great news for everyone soon! Cheers
I tried to stay away, but I just got back home, and the first thing I did was check the tracker and then jump to the forum. :p

Well, this is unfortunate and you are not alone. It is beyond me why an applicant from the same processing office would not receive test invitation for so long after BG has been cleared. In a couple of cases, I've seen applicants report that for some reason, the file hasn't even received the local office yet.

Your processing office should be Mississauga.

Have you ordered GCMS notes to see what is going on with your application?
Ordered for GCMS notes today. I dont see any timelines for GCMS notes. Any generic timelines?

Updated. Congratulations!

Unless you received a notification from IRCC saying they intend to refuse your application, you can assume "Decision Made" = "Approved".

Also, could you please check the New Citizenship status Dashboard and let me know when "Prohibitions" was set to "Completed"?

Thanks.
Thank you

Actually i did not know about that portal, i just created an account

Here is the info :

Jul 23, 2021
Prohibitions activity status updated
Prohibitions
Prohibitions status has been updated to Completed


What does this mean ? Prohibitions from what exactly ?

Edited: Ah never mind, in the same page, there is a link that explain it => https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/become-canadian-citizen/eligibility/situtations-prevent-citizenship.html

Thank you @rajkamalmohanram

Any other updates from September folks? Looks like there's been a lot of activity lately for both 2019 and 2020 applicants. Any other test invitations or DM or oath dates?

Seems like a quiet day over here. As usual, I have been checking the tracker every hour and nothing since test completion 5 weeks ago.
Well, same here. Today, one of my friends who is a July applicant received DM (Mississauga office). He took the test sometime early June.

I wonder if there's a point in checking multiple times a day, though. There must definitely be some sort of batch processing that happens for the tracker, instead of updates reflecting instantaneously. So if you don't see an update at any point of the day, may as well check 24 hours later after the next batch processing is done.

Disclaimer - fully understand the easier said than done part..
