It's really hard to stay positive guys. Everyday I am checking only to be disappointed day after day.
Online citizenship test completed, waiting for next steps

- Start date
It's really hard. I also checked (almost) every day. I would open the tracker and only briefly check the "Last updated" already knowing nothing would change. And then suddenly Monday I did the same, completely expecting to the same thing as always, but this time there was a big "ACTION REQUIRED" with the noticed that I would have my oath ceremony on March 7.
It's difficult but hopefully soon enough you'll have the same good surprise I had. Be strong and best of luck to everyone here.

As I wake up in the morning, the first thing I reach out for is the phone. Did the same today. Apart from the SMS and long list of Good Morning messages in various WhatsApp groups, I also take a cursory look at personal emails. Did the same today.
Except today was different; in the inbox was a message from a cic.gc.ca address.
I was no longer groggy. Wide awake. It was the happiest day of my life. It had finally come through.
I thought I’d wait for a little while before waking the kids and the Mrs. to give them this good news.
Finally, my prayers had been answered and the gods at IRCC had showered their blessings.
I began to read the message slowly. The response to my webform was finally in. The boiler plate response reassured me that everything was ok and I was one of the thousands who had been impacted by Covid.
Th response was so personalised that Covid was highlighted in RED and then crossed out.
Gawd, it was a short day. I turned and went back to sleep.

Great, thanks. I'm hoping to get the oath package soon. It still hasn't arrived yet, so close yet so far away.
How much time it takes now a days to update ecas or online tracker after the online test is completed?
Your time line is similar to mine. I passed the test on Jan 25, test showed completed Jan 27 and all the buttons (except ceremony) turned green Feb 21.
On line, no choices of dates, they just send you the invite and 10 pages of information by email
Thanks. The reason I was asking was that. I went for test and got email link to continue and upload my id but my webcam failed and then the email link expired. I created another sign in and got the second email link and then completed my test. I am a bit worried since my first link didn’t worked and I have to sign in again and use the second email link. I called IRCC and the agent said it’s too early to see any update as I have the test yesterday.
You don't worry. My first link also expired and i got my test done through 2nd link. The test is now in complete status.
