I have not got a test invite yet. Would there be an alternate way to find out? Also, does it make any difference with this information
imo it doesn't make a difference, you'll get an update when you get an update. Some do get faster updates ( May applicants getting oath whereas some still waiting for a BG update ). The less you think about it the better you can focus on other things in life ( work , family, hobbies )

Hello everyone,

First of all, congratulations to all of you who are now Canadian citizens and best of luck to all of us who are still in the process. Just wondering, how long does it usually take from "Citizenship Test Activity Status Update: COMPLETED" to any other update? (Background has been completed as well). Also, has everyone been asked for Finger prints?

I had a ghost update on 24th Jan. Till today nothing had changed. My tracker was last updated in May 2021 where everything has her sitting on “completed” since then. Only oath I’m waiting for. My wife and I both had the ghost update 3 days ago and she’s also on same completed dates as me.

I believe you will get an invitation for oath taking soon

My brother's application:

Type: Online application
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1096
Application: Single
Application sent: May 19, 2021
AOR: Sep 01, 2021
Background Check Completed: Jan 11, 2022
Official Test Notice Received: January 17, 2022 January 27, 2022
Test window: Between January 20 - Feb 9th. January 31 - Feb 20

Like some of the folks whose tests were canceled and rescheduled, my brother's test was also rescheduled and he just received the official notice confirming the updated test dates. His online status now reflects the same test window (previously it did not show any test invite at all). I'm surprised to note that his case went to an office on the WEST coast when he filed from Toronto. Mine went to SCR, which I assume is Scarborough.


In my case:


Type: Online application
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1096
Application: Single
Application sent: May 19, 2021
AOR: Sep 01, 2021
Background Check Completed: Jan 11, 2022
Official Test Notice Received: January 12, 2022
Test window: Between January 14, 2022 and February 3, 2022
Test Completed: January 23, 2022
Official Test Completed Status: January 25, 2022
