only 15% of the oct applicants have got test invites....so it is gonna be a while would be my guess..
Have we taken into account attrition rates. Many people just vanish or become passive viewers at later stages of their application. But nonetheless, gives a decent snapshot of the working. Majority of the people who applied don't come to this forum, so I think no precise way of estimating exact workload. Wait, watch and be patient is the strategy I am currently employing. Made it this far, couple of months more. Fingers crossed.

Was checking eCAS again, came to notice that IP was actually Jan 18th. You can update if it helps to create a better synopsis of processing times for other valued members on this forum. Many thanks.
updated!

Edmonton applicants:
I am in contact with MP Sohi to make him aware about slow processing of citizenship applications at IRCC Edmonton.
They confirmed it is a known issue(on large scale), and MP Sohi is already trying to resolve with IRCC.

My request to Edmonton applicants is to contact(email/phone his office) MP Sohi to pursue this issue urgently so that it can be prioritized further.
Hi,
I'm applicant from Edmonton.
Application sent on Nov 8 and received on Nov 14, still waiting for AOR.
How to contact MP Sohi?

Thanks
Ever

It's in French, yours?
Did you choose French in your application form? Mine is in English, both the email and the attached letter.

I can now see my application in ECAS. I noticed a strange thing there. In mailing address they put my India's address even though I never gave that address in any forms. I have updated it with my Canadian Address using online service. Hopefully it updates in few weeks. But I was shocked to see that!

I have chosen English, cause my English is much better. Maybe because I submitted the test for French, but I also submitted academic Ielts high score. I know it has to be general Ielts, but I submitted anyway.
The whole link is in French and attached letter.Even the link for Discover Canada is in French. I hope my test will be in English.
