You can do fingerprints from pretty much anywhere in the world

I completed my online citizenship test in the end of November 2021. I still have not received an update of "completed" on the tracker , It still says in progress on the test section. Should I call them ? Has anyone else had such a delay after their online test ?

I have the same issue.
I passed test in middle of November and the status of the test is still not changed to completed and no update since I received test invite.
Still don't know what to do!

So, I have completed my Third Test today (this time MS Teams) in last 9 months.
I have passed all three times.
Now lets see how much longer.

What was the problem each time ? Did you see yourself during the test? I took a photo of my ID, and photo of myself, no issues. I made sure when it said allow webcams I clicked yes. I made sure all settings were on "allow" on my computer, but during the test I did not see myself, , I have read on this forum now that you are supposed to see yourself or it will probably be a re-test. So frustrating because I passed and this was Nov 2021 and still no update on my tracker !

1st time they said that they weren't able to see my ID properly. I was saving my photos also and they were clear. 2nd time they objected that they weren't able to record me (which was weird because my spouse used the same setup and test got accepted).
Both times I wasn't able to see myself but my camera light was on and Google Chrome was showing that I am being recorded.
I got detailed comments of officers through GCMS.
Third time is the charm and I was hoping for MS teams to get over this technical issue whatever they are having.

What is the GCMS , how do you access that. I am checking my status on the status tracker only. Do you mean you requested to have the information given to you and they gave the notes ? Such a frustrating process. There are applicants who applied Jan 2021, and already scheduled for oath. There is no consistency in their processing at all. All over the place, it's a joke.

Also, how long after each time, did it take them to reschedule you. So far I have done the 1st test Nov 2021, and it still says in progress. There are no updates, and they do not answer webform. When they finally respond the webform, they just give a cut and paste response not relevant to anything I mentioned to them. Also, I tried to email the invitation email, again just a cut and paste response not relevant to my question.
