13-May-21: Citizenship Test Invitation
21-May-21: Citizenship Exam Passed


anyone know how long before there is an invite for oath taking?
Given the current scenario, I would recommend expecting a wait time of 3 to 5 months from test/interview or more to receive an oath invitation.

Am I the only person left in August for a test invite? Anyone in the same situation?
Thanks
You are not the only one, I am stuck at Background in progress, in my GCMS notes my file is been in transit for 4 months seems it is collecting dust at the local office and It also shows that I have pending fingerprint request, which I haven't receive it yet.

I'm assisting my mum do hers and her background check has come back completed, they have said they are waiting to see if her physical presence adds up. The frustrating part is that her physical presence is almost a YEAR over the required amount so its super frustrating.

Received a very general email from IRCC today:


Follow the progress of your citizenship grant application with the Citizenship Application Tracker
Dear Client,

Thank you for submitting your application for a grant of Canadian citizenship. Your application was created in our system on November 27, 2020 and is currently in progress.

You can now follow the progress of your application with our new Citizenship Application Tracker. The Tracker replaces the Electronic Client Application Status (eCAS) tool for citizenship grant applications.

The Citizenship Application Tracker allows you to check:

  • your application status;
  • any next steps you need to take;
  • our progress with your application;
  • a timeline of your citizenship grant application history.
That's the same email I got and when I logged in, I saw that I have my citizenship test schedule. Still waiting for the instruction email.

I too received this email. No change in the status when I checked my profile.

that is strange, my background is still ‘in process’ and pretty much everything else is in process. Nothing related to test yet.
