Got a ghost update today in the tracker (Updated: Oct 14, but no change), which hopefully means that DM is coming next week <3

I got that too a couple of days ago, I guess they were just "touching" the application.
Did you get your "completed" everywhere already?

Hi guys,

My wife just failed the citizenship test, unfortunately, 14/20. The results report says "a second time will be done in person at a IRCC local office", which is confusing as in-person test is not availvle now. So, I wonder if it will be another online test and how long will it take to be rescheduled? Has anyone had the same experience? Much appreciated if you can share or comment!

Many thanks!

Hello!

I had my passport scans requested on October 12, which I shared on October 12.
On October 14, my prohibitions, language, and physical presence status was updated to "completed".
ECAS shows "decision made". :)

I am going to be out of Canada for a couple of months, and I wonder when will I get notified on the citizenship oath date and if we need to be in Canada to take that, given the ceremonies are all virtual now.

In any case, it is a good day today. And, to all who are waiting, sending good vibes your way. :)

Cheers!

Congrats, glad to see more activity from the Vancouver office! :)
From what I've seen in the other threads, we actually do need to be physically present in Canada for the oath ceremony (and reschedule otherwise).
