Congrats on passing the test, most likely you might get the oath invite or be requested for additional info. ex. Passport copy so keep that handy. You should be getting an email or an update soon

Thank you for your kind words. Since that previous post, another co-worker of mine March 2021 applicant got test invite last week from Scarborough, 6 months Turn Around Time, it is incredible even for IRCC standards.. looks like miracles do happen.

Like you said, nobody knows how they are processing currently, all we can do is wait.

An easy way to find out your office is to look at the test invite email you received, the code of the office would be in the email address. The following is the Scarborough office Email address for test invites, SCR stands for Scarborough: IRCC.DNCitSCRScheduling-ConvocationSCRCitRN.IRCC@cic.gc.ca

Hi royce,
Thank you so much for your prompt reply.
I always appreciate your feedback.
Btw, just saw the link and noticed that my office seems to be in Mississauga.
DN Cit MIS Scheduling / Convocation MIS Cit RN (IRCC)
Don’t know if this office is fast at processing applications, but I just hope for the best
Any news from you? No test invite yet?
I have a feeling that you’ll get oath invite notification very soon after you take the test
Wish you all the best,
A.

Thank you looking at recent trends Mississauga office is relatively faster looks like though Scarborough is catching up, especially for 2021 applicants. They seem to processing these at warp speed!

I know some people from May-Sept 2020 have been getting test invites lately so hopefully will see something soon! Fingers crossed.

Anybody know what is the processing time for RCMP fingerprint?

so had my mother in law FP taken electronically through FP agency and they sent to RCMP electronically and then once processed RCMP should send directly to immigration.

It depends region to region. I saw some people reported 2 weeks in Ontario. It took me 5 weeks in Calgary for my status to change for FP.

Anyone got update after sending scanned copies of passport ?

About 5 weeks is the average.

Yep, they asked for changing the format and resend the copies, we sent a zip file to put all pictures together, and jpeg file (which technically is same as jpg file), but they wanted specifically pdf or jpg file.
Converted in to pdf and sent it again.

they responded to the first set of pictures in 3 - 4 working days, and that should be the time they actually take to look into it.

Thanks, and I guess another couple of weeks to get to IRCC for their processing. My father in law security/background is completed only mother in law FP remain so I am thinking it maybe end of this year to receive oath invitation as Physical presence is remain not completed for both, they are test exempted.

Oath Ceremony might be early next year, nothing too certain. Wait and watch is the best bet.
We have decision made for more than a month, no date for oath ceremony yet. Some people got the oath ceremony date recently, but it was early next year.

Hi,
I submitted my citizenship application in August 2020 and received AOR in January 2021 but since then there has been no progress and the webpage says the application is in progress. I see many folks have updates on their applications. Is there anything I can do to speedup the process?

Hi member, i have webform to confirm if they received my PP copies email. It has been a week and no response. How long they take to reply to our webform?

Hey Buddy! I feel you, whats your Visa Office? or City you live in? Do not worry, i am on same boat and we will hear soon, its just some VO are aggressively working and some VO have low staff.
