I saw a Calgary Jan 2021 Paper Applicant get a test invite earlier in an FB group I follow. Could be perceived two ways, IMO:

1. Calgary is actually still processing applications (Yay!)
2. Calgary basically gave up on 2019 & 2020 applicants and just decided to focus on 2021 to meet quotas :(

Let’s organize something ASAP!!
If the conservatives win the election and start talking about returning all the paper applications, we are all getting united and going there! I’m sick of this injustice that people from December 2020 or February 2021 getting their oath invites!!! We are not gonna sit and wait while so many scandals going on it’s time to say STOP TO THIS MESS!

Look what I have found: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.1171403
And what a coincidence, recent Conservative Premier of Alberta was the immigration minister back then.

“Having to process applications that are as many as eight years out of date reduces our ability to focus on new applicants with skills and talents that our economy needs today." Imagine all the innocent people had to deal with that.. Speechless..

I know this is about PR applications but who can give guarantee that the same thing won’t happen for the citizenship applications??

You assumption is not applicable to Citizenship applicants.. these were mostly Federal Skill Workers OUTSIDE of Canada, and although unfair, Canada can change its immigration policies at any time to refocus its priorities, and those who don’t make the cut, unfortunately are out. PR have more legal rights than someone overseas.
