congratulations once again.

Does your online status say "In Process" or "Decision Made" and is it still showing test invite and no oath invite?
Finally it updated yesterday. But, it directly went to "Complete". No "Decision Made". The lines do not have any reference to LOT or Oath Invite.

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on October 3, 2014.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on October 3, 2014.
3. We started processing your application on November 14, 2014.
4. We sent you a notice on April 22, 2015 to appear and write the citizenship test on May 14, 2015 at 9:00 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.
5. You became a Canadian citizen on June 9, 2015.

Congratulations....
Study the Official "Discover Canada" book at least 3-4 times. Don't rely much on online tests. You can can't solely rely on online tests to pass the test. You should only consider Official "Discover Canada" book only to pass the test.

Take the originals of the copies those were submitted along with the application.
The invitation letter will outline what you need to bring.

Also, if you think some extra supporting documents that can support your application, you may take it with you.
Usually the officer looks at the passports held in past 4 years, pr card, landing document, 2 pieces of ID etc and officer will match the stamps on the passports with the online residence calculator. He may or may not look at other documents however, make sure you take all necessary paperwork(including originals) with you. You never know if the officer might be interested to look into other original documents. Also remember about getting the translation of stamps those are not in english.
The test is for 30 minutes and in order to pass the test at least 15 questions should be answered correctly out of 20. You may need to wait for the interview after the test. Overall time may be 1-4 hours depends upon when you would be called for the interview. The interview should be for around 5-10 minutes

Once you have recieved line dissapeared meaning you have got a new modificaton on your application through the system. In fact, you cannt see this modification, but on CIC system control something is added to your application file, normally it happens once the letter of the Test is issued.


Mine has been disappeard for few days, for some of people it happend just one week, then the letter recieved on the next following week.


good news for those disappeard!

Please read the following link:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/my_application/status.asp

It clearly states the following:
Please note that some citizenship applicants are currently experiencing technical difficulties with our e-Client Application Status online tool. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. In the meantime, you may refer to the processing times web page for an estimate of how long it may take to process your application. Thank you for your patience.

By the way I have already given the test and waiting for oath and few of the following december applicants who have given the test have got same issue.
