Did anyone receive the test invite email before their tracker was updated? How long after you received the email was the tracker updated for you?

Hi Fafa,
I received the invite two days ago, but tracker is not updated. Based on this thread, seems the tracker is not updating after april12th: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/tracker-updates-after-april-12.765777/

Hi gisellaKH,
Thanks for the link. So any suggestions on what we need to do? Do we wait for the tracker to be updated first or can we take the test in the meantime?

I sent an email to scar office checking my status (only bkgd check & test completed in Aug 21) on Apr 1 and received reply same day saying my email already forwarded to the responsible unit and then 2 hours later another reply saying "This is to inform you that your application is in queue to be scheduled for the next event. When you are scheduled for this event, you will be contacted by the local Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) " and then saying this email is not supposed to check application status so on.....

I suspect "that event" is an interview and not oath as my other checks not yet completed.

I requested GCMS notes last Dec 21 and got a reply in Feb 22 but no new updates at all as all info I knew already. There is a due date for prohibition/language/ physical tests to be completed on Mar 20, 2022 but apparently the due date doesn't mean anything as still no progress til now.

From my observation, if one cannot get DM within 3 months after test, it will go to the bottom of the officer's drawer

Thank you for the detailed reply, at what stage the DM is made and how it will be visible to us or how can we find it out?

I don't think you need the tracker update. I just used the link that they sent in the email and took the test

Dont wait on IRCC, they take their own sweet time. Once you receive any communication from them, just follow instructions - be it test invite or oath letter.

When all checks completed and test done except ceremony. But DM will only show on the old ECAS.

Is there a way to log in to old ecas? Or is that something we cannot do these days? Thank you

Thank you for the reply, in my case all steps are completed since 1st Dec 2021, but in ecase still it reflects in process. Is this mean still decision on my application is pending?

If the old ecas shows in process, then I think is still pending. Did you send email to scarborough office and check? or reguest GCMS notes?

Yes I sent email, no reply yet. Just to understand, if all steps are completed except the oath still DM is not made, what more they check and what conclude them to change the status to DM?

Hey folks, I'm a May 19, 2021 applicant. My brother and I applied from the same household & within seconds of each other ONLINE. The facts surrounding our case are practically identical except for the fact that we're 2 diff people. Despite us both being in the GTA, his case went to Vancouver, while mine went to Scarborough. His test was taken and marked completed in Feb while mine was marked complete on Jan 25th. Lang, Prohibitions, & Presence still in progress in my case while he's about to have his Oath ceremony tomorrow.

I sent an email to Scarborough convocations email (listed in this thread) asking them if there is any possibility to join him for the Oath. Haven't heard back since last Wed. Any suggestions from anyone? Just be patient I guess? It feels like SCR is a blackhole for citizenship applications while other offices are actually doing their job.
