CIC call center told me that online status are updated once a week on tuesdays ... is that true ?

How did you reach CIC? The phone line doesn't even put me in the queue because it's too busy

Hi, who is responsible for this spreadsheet? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16cfQUVB3j56QktacolbsAxpNlOrvk2uFGZzm_ZFCnfg/edit#gid=2028181341

Since last week it was changed, now it redirects to "htmlview" where its not possible to filter by Location.

Updated. Congrats!!

Do update us when you get email/mail letter on where the test is? Scarborough or Mississauga. Today, few Brampton applicants have received test invites from Scarborough visa office. Not seen anyone getting a test invite from Mississauga for April.

Just received the letter, test will be in Mississauga.

No I didn’t send one for my 8 year old daughter. I don’t recall seeing it in kids checklist either.

Hi There,

Please update samurai1 for October 2017 to Decision Made April 9th =)

My Ecas is still showing the following:

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on October 17, 2017.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on November 21, 2017.
3. We started processing your application on January 9, 2018.
4. We sent you a notice on January 23, 2018 to appear and write the citizenship test on February 21, 2018 at 8:18 AM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

Maybe it takes time for the system to have a new line regarding the oath?

Thank you
