You are stuck because all recent online applications are pretty much not being processed right now including mine.
Here is their number 888-242-2100

You need to review the citizenship spreadsheet to see what I'm talking about.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_KE3Bu3C3gOyEm0mRVcJH9nEA2u2GOhfpUZOckOWmN0/edit#gid=1870160571

You will notice that a handful of January 2022 applicants got their test invite and the rest, NOTHING. So there is nothing abnormal about your application. It's just that online applications are halted. Things may change though so who knows.
That sucks bro...what if we cancel online application and apply on paper ?

It doesn't work that way unfortunately, once you apply online that's it, you have to wait for IRCC to process your application.
I've seen cases who applied later on paper but it didn't change much.

Ghost updated: 22 July

Fingerprints request 5th August, finger submit on 5th August. (Request Letter came from and asked to delivery her FP result to IRCC Vancouver office)

RCMP sent out result on Wed, 17th August

On Sep 12th morning my mom call IRCC Call Center to ask if they received her FP or not. They said they did not have any updated about her FP result and they told her to continue waiting.

Tracker update on Sep 15th: FP Received on Sep 12th, message says will review shortly;
then Background status: Completed on Sep13th. all those updated about FP result only appear on Tracker Sep 15th.

I called IRCC recently and they said they do not know why I can’t register for 3 months since AOR. They looked up my application and there is zero movement, she said this is too early to have any application touched. When I said there are tons of people with paper application that are seeing a lot of progress and none for online applications, she said “it can’t be true as all applications are treated equally

Those are just scripted responses, same you'll get from the IRCC chat bot.

Hi!
A question to those who passed the test. Were the questions difficult with many dates and names? Or were they more like the ones from Toronto public library sample tests?

Hi!

My test was almost all of Modern Canada while my wife's test revolved majorly around History of Canada. However both of us did not get many dates. I have not done the Toronto public library samples so I'm not sure about that. But if you have read the Discover Canada book cover to cover 2 times (including the small text in the side columns) and do various online test samples, you should be able to pass the test relatively easily.
