First, wait for about 48-72h and try registering for the tracker.... As @ulka0410 said above, it's going to be some wait for us... about 12 months (hopefully sooner)
Next step is Background Check complete followed by test. Test is now conducted online followed by an interview for select few people (this can be online or in-person). Previously, before COVID in-person test + interview was scheduled for everyone and was mandatory for 18-55 year olds.
Since you are 55+, you may skip the interview and language requirements or they may randomly select you for an interview. It could be online or in-person... Lots of things are in flux and can change next year... We'll have to wait and watch. After this a decision is made on the application (physical presence, and prohibitions will change to complete). This is followed by an oath invite and the oath ceremony.
Currently online applications delivered in July 2022 are seeing background check complete... You can look at the spreadsheet (link in signature) to get some idea of when to expect next steps...
Good luck!
