Congrats. You were one of the faster ones in Oct-19. Almost to the finish line.

Will I be invited via email or physical mail for oath?

Will I be invited via email or physical mail for oath?

Email, if you have given it, or may be a phone call.

One year passed yesterday... I'm still waiting on when they will invite me for a test. I don't understand how schools can be back in session but they can't start doing small groups for testing.

Lazy excuses. IRCC union employees think that they are special and deserve special treatment on our taxes and fees while service delivery is pathetic to the least.

Same for me as well:
Application Received: Oct 7
Processing: Jan28
... crickets, tumbleweed, and frustration ever since.

No update from immigration yet...the passport of my native country expires in November'2020.

I will have to spend again to renew my passport for with this uncertainty looking over. :-(

You don't need a PR card to keep PR status. You only really need it as proof of identity when you return to Canada from abroad. You only need to renew if it you have travel plans, which I doubt.

"You don’t lose your permanent resident status when your PR card expires. You can only lose your status if you go through an official process."

This is really helpful. Thanks for your response.

only those who have done tests are being processed now, never seen any new test cases...

 

[erable_rouge]

I wonder why there are so slow. So many other services have resumed (with precautionary measures in place). I wish they resume testing soon, for it's gonna be another 6-8 months before the oath with the rate at which they are moving.

 

[his*marty]

Yes and with covid cases rising again, I don't see this happening any time soon. This is getting seriously upsetting. :/
