I called them on Thursday and they confirmed that my test result has been validated. However, the bad news is that my residence and language assessments are still "not started"... They used to complete all checks before sending out test invites but now it seems that's no longer the case. I guess it will be another long wait to DM, at least for me. :( Probably you should call to check your detailed status too. :)
Did you received fingerprint request btw?

Did you call CIC? The agents can't see anymore than what is on ECAS, that is IP? I was told by a call center lady about this on a chat that laster 30 mins. How did you know what passed and what did not?
Yes... Some agents are nice enough to put you on a brief hold (maybe they need an escalation) and check the detailed status for you, sadly others are not nice enough...

Probably he requested GCMS notes.
I did order GCMS notes in the past, but later I found calling them is easier as you can get real-time status rather than waiting for a month to get a PDF report. I don't really need that long report and this can probably save IRCC time too. :) Not sure why some call centre agents don't want to do that... :(

Oh, yes I will do what numbers should I call and how many waiting time should I expect?

That's 888-242-2100. Because I am in NS, I always call early in the morning between 08:00 and 09:00 AST, wait time is almost zero LOL. This is because at that time only Atlantic provinces can call in (their call centre opens at 08:00 your local time). The later in the day you call, the longer wait time you will get. And at some point (I believe if wait time is longer than 30 minutes) they will not allow you to wait and hang you up... :(

Yes, I think this is OK! :)

When I called IRCC they updated my email address. Then I did the web form to get the link for my test. So I would try calling and see if they can tell you how your application is going. Because when I called I had no idea they sent me test invite

Looks like you will be getting an interview invite.
