Don't get your hopes up guys. It all depends on your local office. As you can see in the spread sheet, only people from Scarborough got their test invites.

Hopes are quite low ;)

Actually, I will remain very busy at work during last 3 weeks of Jan, 2015. I won't have time to prepare or write the test. Besides, I will have to drive to either London or WIndsor to write the test I guess. So. let it come whenever it's appropriate.

Here's a list of what's going on in my life re: CIC
- Applied for my citizenship (in-process)
- Assisted in-laws to apply for TRV (they got it on Dec 15, 2014)
- Planning to apply for my mother's sponsorship (Jan 2, 2015)
- Planning to apply for my wife's citizenship (Jan 19, 2015)

Furthermore, my wife's expecting (March, 2015)

I seriously don't have time to over think for my citizenship test...

Congrats @ def_col_male and @ Donvalley (DVP is one of my favorite live NFS track at night :D)
Offtop: Rossei, please don't speed on DVP. Nobody want to find you in ditch in morning. You know so many crashes on DVP due to speeding.

Thanks Ralph..

The first letter we received --AOR with study guide -- have only two numbers: Client ID and Receipt number,
but the second letter -- test invite -- have three no.s: File no., Case ID and Client ID. So I think the file no. is not there in AOR(print).
So does that mean we cannot know now if application is being processed through new way or old? Or is there any other way to know? say, you received AOR and Test book through mail is old process and if received through email is new!!

Don't know about batch by batch or how systematic and fair to your general position in the queue they are (as in someone who applied in July / Aug should see AOR before those who applied later etc).

But it appears based on patterns reported here that GTA folks..and maybe GTA folks with Family Applications or Family here or NOT MUCH Travel are hearing very soon..

Look at Scarborough !

Look at Scarborough !
In that order, I will be at the bottom. I'm a single applicant from Sarnia with fair portion of travel.

Looks like Scarborough office is busy. Hopefully they get Ottawa rolling quickly too!

Question: I'll be moving to Kingston next month, so what can I expect? Is there a Kingston office? Can I expect delays?
