This is my application timeline...
  1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on April 10, 2017.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on April 27, 2017.
  3. We started processing your application on May 9, 2017.
  4. We sent you a notice on July 12, 2017 to appear and write the citizenship test on August 3, 2017 at 11:45 AM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.
And I am still waiting for ceremony... I got DM on around Aug 4th to 5th...

BTW I need to work abroad in late October so I called CIC many times asking if I could apply for an urgent process...Since no work permit without a Canadian passport...But the lady answered the phone told me that since the company employed me is not a Canadian-based company so I cannot apply for an urgent process...sigh...She also told me that my file is perfectly fine and just wait to be scheduled.

Mississauga office Applicants-

I have observed from the spread sheet that the Feb and March 2017 Mississauga applicants have also not received the test invite so far. Did any one from Mississauga office got the test invite from April applicants.

Thanks,

Waiting to write my test in a couple of weeks. I am a bit nervous and worried about memorizing dates from 1700s, 1800s, and 1900s. I continue to practice but seems to always get the questions with "dates" wrong. Just wondering, are there a lot of questions with "dates" on the test?
Thanks

Nothing to worry and you don't have to remember all the dates, just read the book multiple times and practice the tests from http://citizenshipcounts.ca/
