No update on my application as per July 27th update :( , still the same status, everything is in progress although test is done. I am guessing I wont receive anything till September because that is when my fingerprints from last year will expire

And at the same time they keep on processing 2020 applicants and arranging their Oath... Nothing personal, I'm happy for them, but IRCC can't blame COVID and delay 2019 while processing 2020. It looks like a trend nowadays.

Yes covid became the new excuse. Everyone got vaccinations and lets get it over with. Let see how long this can take. Really disappointing and depressing

The worst part: Few offices even moved on to 2021 test invites as if these offices finished with oath for all of 2019/2020 & before.
So the same story carried to 2020 too - watching later applicants getting done with oath.

They have easy reasons: Covid. If not they label as Complex / Non-Routine. :oops:
