yyzhuang ....so is your eCAS indicating the oath schedule under Decision Made status?
Hi rachelsung, my ecas only shows test invite under Decision Made. The test invite was updated on July 31 (3 months after my test). no oath info in ecas. The letter I received today was dated Aug 13th.

I wish you all get your invitation very very soon!

So,

I did my test in October 2013 (applied February 2012) and I'm still waiting for the oath letter. I didn't have my old passport with me as I couldn't find it for the test which resulted in me having to submit a form declaring all travel. No biggie, I submitted it the day after the test.

I called them last month and they told me my ceremony was in May, I had no idea, I didn't receive a letter and nothing changed online. The agent told me to send a letter promptly to the office saying I didn't know the test had already come and gone.
To make matters worse, I actually called in May and the agent that picked up the phone said that I shouldn't call anymore but rather wait for them to contact me. Why he didn't tell me the ceremony was in May is beyond me. Thankfully I did decide to call back otherwise I would have just been waiting.
Apparently I have to wait six months from the moment I announced to them that I didn't know there was a ceremony. Ridiculous. Is there supposed to be something online? my status changed to "Decision made" last month which prompted my call to them.

3.5 years and counting. My passport expires in January, hopefully this is done by then. I really wished I was going to be able to vote but that doesn't seem in the cards. Anyone else experience anything like it?

They didn't open my file either. I think the 6 months wait time is their standard response to us who are eager to know about the oath.

Good question Goodluckycher. Oath is at Vancouver, Expo Blvd. It's likely that the website is not updated. I will call them to confirm.
