Somehow March applications seems to be processing a lot faster than January. 51% of March applicants received at least test invites (compared to January''s 38%) and the number of applicants in March forum is higher (158) than January (131).
On the other hand, there are likely more online applications in March 2021 compared to January 2021, and with online applications generally moving quicker, that could cause the March applications being processed quicker than some January applications, but not to the extent that the skewed 51% VS. 38% invitation rate. Just a hypothesis though.

I agree that the results are skewed. I'm not sure when the spreadsheet stopped being edited for January 2021, but I only found out I could request access several weeks ago. I went back to page 80 to look for updates, but I'm sure there are some updates before that that were missed. And, if people knew that the spreadsheet was not being kept up to date, then they would be less motivated to actually post their updates. Some of those people may not come back now that they've decided not to update their info. [Or the updates just haven't been incorporated if before page 80.]

Where are you applying from? Do you know the exact day that you received AOR in March? Date of in process on ecas? Date you were invited in September for test?
Great news! Congratulations to you and your family. Thanks for the best wishes for us stranglers
btw @CdnWifeLivingInThailand for me you can probably set ECAS IP to May 17th too, since it s when the BG check was completed and my application on the tracker now says "in progress", dated May 17th for last updated
Calgary.
March 17th
Not sure the date of process in ecase.
Sep 15th Test invitation date.
I sent the reschedule email request one day ago to Vancouver office and just got an reply back that thank you for your email and the ceremony will be rescheduled for a future date. The original oath date was on December 23rd, I'm expecting the next they offer will be in the next 3 -6 months based on other people's experiences.
So here's the thing guys!! last night i had a dream that "i checked my application status and it was updated. I woke up at 7 and just because of that dream i checked my status.. I never check my application early in the morning (that too first thing in the morning while I'm still in my bed) because i used to think they probably start working around 9 so i'd check around 11 to see if there's an update..
And there was an update!! I FINALLY GOT TEST INVITE.. isn't that so so very strange lol.. no bs..
Finally a light of hope for all those who've been waiting for test invites since last 7-8 months ..and frustrated.. hope you alll get test invites too... It's about time lol.
