Non routine means IRCC does not have any accountability :(

No accountability, so whenever you call them for update they will say as it's non routine there is no fixed timeline for completion.
Is anyone out there like me in the same boat? And file changed to non routine due to their inability to process the application in time!!!

Fresh Update: Got Final Interview Notice this morning (most likely ghost update triggered) but no update reflected under status.
Interview already attended: Dec 28, 2023
Called IRCC the rep told me there is no evidence that you attended the Dec 28 interview.
Anyone experienced this BS?

It was online! I did replied to email for the final interview and got reply from CIC "
Hello,

You are correct, do you do not need to attend this second interview. There has been a scheduling error.

We are finalising your file. Please remember you must be inside Canada to take the oath of citizenship. " and now interestingly on the status it shows interview required now (Update: Feb 14, 2024). I am not going to attend the final interview as the officer replied on the email.
