Does anyone here have their online application processed in Scarborough but only have Test & Background completed so far? I see some people in Toronto that submitted online in Nov & Dec 2021 have DM already even though they completed the citizenship test after I did.

My timeline is below:

City: Toronto ON (Processing Office: Scarborough)
Type: Online, Single
Application Submission: Oct 11, 2021
AOR: Dec 29, 2021
Background Completed: June 20, 2022
Test Invite: June 25, 2022
Test Taken: July 04, 2022
Test Completed (on the tracker): July 05, 2022

All others still show in process.

Anyone in Toronto is having the same timeline as mine? Don't know what is the logic that the Scarborough office is using because some Nov & Dec 2021 online applicants already have DMs.

Ottawa, ON
Question: we filed family application. Is it possible to schedule oath different date for her and a different date for myself? My wife is travelling and we need to reschedule oath for her. If yes, how do we do it?
Yes. Call them, explain the situation, and they will process your oaths on different days.

Same here, only test & BG completed. I remember seeing other posts on here about the same problem with the Scarborough office for Toronto applicants.

Hi Guys, for Online applications, we all know that we do not need to provide a scan of all the pages of the passport. I have provided the scan of the biometric pages as well as the pages with some stamps.

Should I provide the scan of all the pages of the passport before even the officer asks for it? Heard that it has been asked from many applicants.
Who told you a scan of full pages of the passport is not necessary? According to the guideline, every page is required.

@vimal3134 Did you get a Nov 8 update? I got everything marked as complete - Oath not started.

Does anyone know how long does it take after everything is marked complete to get an oath request?
