Good to see things moving for the files in Scarborough office. Congrats.

So , you received the document and interview request together ? If you don't mind telling , what documents are they asking for at this stage ?

Just a question: why would some people get a test request much earlier than others although they applied many days and in some cases, weeks later than others? (same city)?

Great question, wrong addressee... Cuz life's unjust? Cuz IRCC offices work at different pace? Cuz some applications take longer to process than others? It isn't a live Costco queue. First come first served doesn't work here. Whereas this is probably not quite just, but it is a question to be answered by IRCC. I doubt anyone in the 100,000+ line of waiting (many of them tired and exhausted, others miss job or life opportunities, yet others not caring about the delays) people would know for sure.

Received both requests together. Requested all pages of passport and the signed consent letter for the Microsoft Teams interview.
