Everything seems stalled. I thought we would have gotten the test invite by now. I am sure it is because of the holidays but I hope things start moving again.

what i read in the forum familiar to this..is a Finger print request..so wait for the letter.. and do what the letter tells you.
So it turned out your suggestion was correct imran01.

Got the letter in mail December 24 (strangely enough on a Saturday for the first time ever since I arrived in Canada!)

I did the fingerprints as required on December 27 waiting to see what's next.

Thanks again for the reply imran01. Wish you all the best.

Why is there such a big variance in processing times even for standard applications? Even within the same geographical area? Does it depend on the country of birth? Or the workload of the employee who processes the application?
