So in general, Scarborough office works relatively slower than others.. typically takes 2-3 months after test is cleared to move ahead in the process.. my wife is in same boat.. good luck everyone!

Lol I wish it was 2-3 months after test. Sitting on 4th month since test marked completed and still patiently waiting. SCR is indeed slowest of all.

For those who gave tests and are awaiting next steps, by any chance is your processing office Scarborough (one can know his/her processing office from the email ID that sent the test invite)?

Scarborough office. Test marked completed Jan 23 and waiting since then.
