Hi 2013Surrey, you are so nice to tell us your timeline even you are about to finish the whole process. Can you confirm your notice to appear oath dated Mar 22 or Apr 22? Does the Ecas show up anything yet? Thanks.

Hi Jaeco! Sorry for the typo; you're right, it is Apr 22. And no, my Ecas hasn't been updated for this recent change.
Thanks 2013Surrey.

So the letter dated Apr 22 and you received on Apr 24?

I am still waiting for my oath letter. Anyone else took test in March or April?

Thanks,
Jaeco
