Hi EdmontonM,

I never saw the first box that says your application has been received. The first time I logged in to check online, it only said In-Process.

Is this a problem?

Thank you!
I had the same issue when I first logged in. When I called CIC, they confirmed that the application has been received, but they haven't open the application package yet, so it wont say received until then. It took a month and a half before I saw the received line

Thanks, I didn't either. I am prepared to take all my employment documents with me for the test.

Did you call CIC to check the status?

May be from Mississauga, but I see some other applicants received their test date in other local offices.
My time line is in spreadsheet.

Depends on the local office. Which one is yours? I couldn't find in the spreadsheet.

Following steps will give you an idea.

There will be a waiting time between background check complete and actually mail the file to local office - add around 10 days for that.
Actual mail transfer time - depending on your local office location add 1 week to 4 weeks. Mine is Mississauga and it took 3.5 weeks.

Local office processing - No idea how long it takes. Mine took only 2 days in Mississauga. July 9th received the file and July 11 mail sent for the citizenship test.

Hope this helps!
