Hey everyone. Jan 2020 Applicant here. Still no test invite or anything. Is this normal? How do you all cope with this wait that causes unnecessary stress and anxiety to a bunch of us. I am kind of starting to lose hope here....

I feel ya, I've been there... :confused: I would suggest to call CIC and tell them that you are going to visit their office in person to personally talk to the officers. I said this to them and they put me on hold while they called Vancouver office and told them about my plans. I also sent Vancouver office a physical letter explaining my situation and how incompetent they are in Vancouver office.

I have no idea if that helped but I got a test invite about a month after that...

!! There is a new system to check your status !!

Guys, I think everyone should register with the new system to track their status, you can register at https://cst-ssc.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/register

You need your UCI and Application number in order to register.

It didn't really help me as my new status is the following:

Language skills: In progress
Physical presence: In progress
Citizenship test: Completed
Background verification: Completed
Prohibitions: In progress
Citizenship ceremony: Not started

This just again shows how slow CIC is... but maybe it'll help you. I'm November 2019 applicant and I still have 4 sections in progress... What a joke CIC and Vancouver office is :mad:

My wife has the exact same status. She emailed IRCC Vancouver today to inquire when her oath ceremony might be scheduled. I'll post an update when she get's a reply. She used this email address that I found in the forum: CIC-Vancouveritinerant@cic.gc.ca. I'm not sure if it's current. We will see.
