I have (had) a very similar timeline to you. I completed my test on July 28th, and I just got my oath scheduled two days ago. Stay strong - you're almost there!
Wow! Did you call them for follow up? I just checked mine again and still no update.

They might be working on those applications now. I did ask for GCMS notes about a month ago though (still haven't received them). That might have helped to move things a bit.

Hello Everyone,
I've got my oath date on January 18th, 2022 (tracker updated for oath on December 20th, 2021), I haven't received the email with instructions yet. Is it normal? Should I contact CIC for the oath instruction email? Any thoughts, experiences will be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I know that IRCC does not ask Passport copies from everyone but normally they ask during the first month after the test is completed, am I right?, Thank you.

Not necessarily but it's around that timeline - for example, I had mine asked around the exact same time as I received my first test invite (possibly even a week or so before, need to check my mail).
