So...I took my test June 10th and it was immediately marked as "completed" (everything else is "In Progress" still, except for Oath which is "not started") and I never received a test interview (I'm in the age that requires one) and its now past my test window (June 7-June 27).

Should I be concerned I never got an interview invite?

My wife still hasn't even gotten her test invite...

No-one will be able to predict that.
Its a lottery, some people get Oath invites within 1-2 months of writing their citizenship tests and some have been waiting for over 6 months.
I guess there are better chances of winning a lottery than getting your citizenship application process completed within reasonably expected timelines :)

Yes, as long as you are physically present in Canada for Interview as well as Oath, you are good.
Interviews are generally to check passport stamps, to establish Presence eligibility.
Some people have reported that officers check Language ability as well - If you have already submitted documents to establish Language proficiency, then that wont be needed.

Many offices are skipping the interview step altogether and if you are lucky you may get Oath invite directly

Not everyone receives an interview. IRCC determines who needs an interview and if you've not received it for this long, you probably will NOT receive an interview invite. But check your status regularly, just in case.

I am from Edmonton, and I completed the Citizenship test on June 16th. My tracker still says, "In progress Waiting on you."

I called IRCC today, and the guy said the only thing you can do is wait. He said it's normal; for some people the tracker gets updated within a week, and for others it takes longer.

Lets see when they do it, hoping for the best!
I'll update you when my tracker shows "Completed."

Thanks!

Till now, interview/oath needs to be done inside Canada. So if you cant travel within those dates then you need to postpone it. I think that it will take few weeks/months to get second invitation.

Hey all,
i need to update my address after completing the test. Do i need to send a webform for address change or just change address from ECAS?
Thank you
