According to the website, the usual timeline for an oath invite from the citizenship test is 4 to 6 months. Some of our timelines are extremely fast and usual, especially compared to those applications sent in 2021 and early 2022. It is amazing that we are seeing such fast processing times nowadays! Any oath invite less than four months from the test for me is a fantastic timeline!

I have moved to BC from ON between the processing, test invite does not say which office is processing the application,

email I received from is IRCC.DNCitOTTScheduling01-Convocation01OTTCitRN.IRCC@cic.gc.ca

What do you guys suggest to prepare for Test.?
Concentrate on voting processes, government and lastly geography of Canada.

Don't know if anyone has noticed this, since Oct 2022 onwards they have started prioritizing online applications. I believe it is in alignment with the new online oath process that is scheduled to begin in June 2023. With the new process the oaths won't have to be administered by a judge, rather they would more be like accepting terms and conditions online and will be completed by clicking an email link and selecting "I agree" just like accepting terms and conditions when installing a new app or software.
I agree, definitely I can see that as a trend too!!
