Congratulations!! This is so encouraging for the rest of us! Quick question, are you an urgent applicant?
Sorry this is not my application just forwarding a post from a facebook group, sorry again for the confusion.
This confirms that online testing is still managed by local office. I initially thought that it will now be centralized since testing is being done online.

More details for anyone wondering-
It's a non-urgent paper application. The person is from New Brunswick - see Facebook post.

Requested GCMS notes at the start of this month (I am also a June 2020 applicant), I am hoping I will get them by mid April & see where's my application at.
I called IRCC this morning. I was told I passed security and eligibility checks and currently criminality is being processed by RCMP. The agent confirmed that once all checks are "Passed", the application is placed into a pool of test-ready applicants. The invitation for the online citizenship test IS RANDOM and handled at the Nove Scotia intake center. The system has a 5,000 limit of active citizenship test takers at any given time before the system crushes. The agent also stated that post-covid applicants are being worked on within the 12-month application process, or at least, aiming for that timeline. Though this is not true for pre-covid applicants as most of them are non-routine applications. This explains why the IRCC website says they are working on applications from March 2019!!
Any thoughts? It's encouraging to know that June 2020 applicants might become Citizens of Canada by end of this summer!

oh that makes sense now.
I called yesterday and the agent said I passed all the clearances, just waiting on the test but then she couldn't give me any more details on when to expect it.
My GSCM notes should be here shortly, we'll see
I think all of the info you were given makes sense, aside from the citizenship tests are sent by the Nova Scotia intake center bit. It would make more sense for the invites to be sent by the local offices, since as far as I am aware applications are dispatched to them after the completeness check for processing.
