No updates since June 15, when Citizenship Test status became complete.
Patience !!
How long will I wait between my citizenship test and the ceremony?
In most cases, the ceremony takes place within three months after you pass the test. We'll give you the results of your test right after you take it.
If your application is non-routine, we may ask you to go to a hearing with a citizenship officer or judge, even after you pass the test. We'll send you a letter after the hearing to let you know:
  • what the officer or judge decided
  • the date of your ceremony (if your application was approved)

Has anyone from November 2020 even gotten a decision made on their application yet? It seems a bit early for that?

The problem is that it might take more time. People who submitted their documents in May 2020 are getting test requests only now. So their timeline doesn't mean anything.

To those people who've got their test invite. Did you see any activity or status update online on the portal before receiving your test invite. I'm a single applicant from Mississauga and my application says still "In process" with only background verification finished on Apr 9th.

Yes, there will be an update on the new tracker when you can take the test before they send you the invite by email

Nope, only the Background Check was completed, everything else was either in process or not started.
That's actually what it still shows, even after I took the test.

Didnt you see the message like below in your tracker before the test date? OP was talking about any notification/indication about the test before the test date. Of course get see a messeage on when the test is scheduled as well as you see the same update in the history and "Citizenship Test"'s section status will be changed to "In Progress".
Jun 18, 2021 Scheduled for citizenship test
You've been scheduled to take citizenship test online between June 18, 2021 and July 8, 2021. Information and instructions will be sent to
Jun 14, 2021 Citizenship test activity status updated

Yes you would see like above, before the test. Also you would see that the dashboard's updated date to recent due to this kind of test related update.
