Yes, If you have trips, they might need to check dates to confirm with your application, which needs Arabic to English translation for your Passport stamps for KSA.
I wonder when we'll see those new judges in action, nothing changed yet.Done for this monday...might be on friday some lucky applicant will receive, we may come to know on weekend.
I do not know what take them so long to schedule an oath, there is no visibility. If you call them no information, at least they should tell an ETA while doing interview, that your tentative oath date is "some day", instead of waiting without any reason for months. so frustrating this Scarborough office.
I understand how you feel. However, they tell us (12 months), but we don't want to accept that, because when see others getting theirs relatively fast, it raises our anxiety levels and blood pressure.
12 months could be an answer when you've just mailed your application..at the beginning everything is vague, there are many unknowns such as how long the BG check will take, or if the system randomly generates an RQ or a FP request might come up, additional documents maybe needed when they review your application, the applicants turnaround time for any inquiries from the IRCC officer has an impact on the overall processing time as well.I understand how you feel.

. That would save them tons of incoming phone calls, and save us months of frustration .At our interview back at the end of February we were told that we can expect the Oath invitation before September. And we got invitation at the end of May for ceremony on June 9th. Yes, we were anxious and waiting impatiently, but they kept the promise and were even faster than expected.12 months could be an answer when you've just mailed your application..at the beginning everything is vague, there are many unknowns such as how long the BG check will take, or if the system randomly generates an RQ or an FP request might come up, additional documents maybe needed when they review your application, the applicants turnaround time for any inquiries from the IRCC officer has an impact on the overall processing time as well.
But when you are already in Decision made - many of the unknowns have been eliminated, the application is likely sitting in some automated queu i assume and they have visibility on how long the queu is, so likely they could be come up with a more accurate estimate - say with a +/- 1 month margin of error (like...say 4 months (which could mean 3 ,4 or 5 months), not anytime between January and October!!),
That accurate estimate is only what we need, and i'm sure they have visibility into that information...and with a little bit of improvement/investment in ECAS, it could be made visible to us too
Anyway, just my thoughts...but who am i?!
I don’t know about anyone else but I am beyond anxious. It’s so hard waiting when everyone else is getting Oath Invite and nothing is happening on my side. I feel like a understudy in a play waiting for something to happen to the lead actor so I could feel in.
They kept the promise as based on 12 months SLA, but when you are in DM sitting for months others applied later than you getting oath, which is really makes no logic to accept that they are on par.
I'm on the same boat. Almost 5 months since test/interview and still nothing. I know they tell us 12 months and I keep hearing people saying only some lucky ones get process done way before the 12 month but as of now it does not seem like it is luck, (or there are way to many lucky people) it seems that whoever is working on our cases just put it aside to deal with a bigger load that started in October. And that is not fair. If everything is ok (and it was confirmed at the interview, even interview officer said that it would be a month or two for oath invitation) with our cases why do we have to wait longer than someone who applied two months after us.
Totally agree. I feel like they forget about us.I'm on the same boat. Almost 5 months since test/interview and still nothing.

I dont mean to offend anybody, it is just my opinion
In the meantime we should keep waiting thats what IRCC said over the phone. It's frustrating but it'll come.
Good luck and hope oath invitation comes soon for everyone especially those from June, July and August who are still waiting like me.
