I guess that explains why your timeline is one month ahead of mine while you applied two months after I did. Good luck.

Yeah, the timelines seem to be all over the place these days, without clear rhyme or reason. I wasn't expecting a test date until at least September. The one thing I've learned is that those of us on here are a very small minority of applicants, and in no way represent an average or majority. So I guess we should take the timelines here with a grain of salt. I'm hoping you hear good news soon! ;D

Hello to all of you, I'm also waiting for my test from the Edmonton office, but I would like to ask if any of you have received extra residence documents in the notice to appear (Notice of assessment, work letter, rental agreements and school attendance). I have my test the third week of may and a bit worried for this documents that they have asked me to take to the interview, jus wondering if is normal.

Thanks.

Hi, I think just take with you whatever they asked. Just curious, when did you apply and when was your file in process and transferred to Edmonton. Could you please share your timeline? Thanks

I applied Jan 2014, and still waiting, so theres that. (No RQ or FP - and call centre agents strongly *insist* that it is a routine application in process and there is nothing abnormal).
