Yep. I am January 2021 applicant (mail) and I received mine last week! I just completed the test and passed. Now begins the wait for the oath ceremony... or interview or whatever they want first.
What ??? Jan 2021 and already passed your test !!?

Yeah, I was surprised as well after reading others messages here. I actually got my PR too very fast without any issues. I'm assuming there will be something like an interview or long wait for the ceremony..

You're very lucky. My PR went super fast too, but it's been 14 months and I'm still waiting to have my test.

Hi all, I saw decision made for my application on August 31, 2021. Any thoughts on how long does it usually take to receive an Oath invitation from the Vancouver office?

Approximately About 3 months after the test or 2 months after DM. It can be earlier or longer though. Personally, I waited about almost 2 months after DM.

My wife had the Decision Made on July 8th. We are still waiting.

She emailed IRCC a couple of weeks ago and got a response today from the Vancouver office that it would be 3-6 months after DM. We hope that is not the reality as we were expecting 2-2.5 months after DM and she's been waiting nearly 2.5 years since she applied already.

Unbelievable.

I took the test on May 21st, my wife took her test on May 17th still no Oath invitation for both of us! It seems that it is different for each applicant!

What is going on here? My wife had her DM on July 8th and was told that she is in the queue for the oath. Is there more than one oath queue at the Vancouver office? Because if there is only one queue (and if it is a functional queue) then she should have her interview invite already based upon your invitation for September 22nd.

What is happening at the Vancouver office?

I doubt that they are placing the DM files in a common pool for oath for the whole office. its still get stuck with the individual officer to make this oath schedule hence too different timelines within the same office for each stage hence differences in timeline for the candidates within same office.

Small office like windsor too do the same. Few late 2020 guys got test before me. So it still the officer who controls the movement on a file which can be fast/slow depending on the officer.

How long it took to get DM after completing the citizenship test? Thanks.
