Hi, Long time Lurker, but first post as I am getting really frustrated seeing all those who have applied long after me getting their ceremonies and passports. I applied Nov 2020, AOR Feb 22 2021. Test invite and passed Jan 28 2022. BG and Test completed in tracker but absolutely nothing else since. I requested and received GCMS notes but they didnt show anything untoward or of note. I know no-one can tell me when I may hear something but there really is no logic to all of this and I am getting really fed up with it. I have had to send for my PR renewal because the 12 month processing has become long over that and I need to be able to travel. Processing office is London and a single applicant if that helps.

Hi, My friend was in a similar situation, he was waiting for the oath invitation for a few months after passing the test but there was no update on his application so he reached out to the Vancouver ceremony office and they scheduled him for the oath ceremony within the next few days. I would suggest you do the same and reach out to the London office, IRCC is only responding to applicants who are reaching out to them, I also got my test invite when I reached out to them.

I hope this helps.

This is my time line:
Application Received: Feb 1, 2021
Background Complete: Dec 8, 2021
Citizenship Status: Feb 4, 2022
Citizenship Test taken: Feb 22,2022
Citizenship Test Updated: March 3, 2022
Lang, Pro & Phy Compete: April 26, 2022
Citizenship Oath: not started
Ecas shows: DM

I did also order my notes on March 31st in hopes that they will go look at my file. The language, prohibition and physical presence is the easiest parts in my opinion.

I will not ask how long from DM to oath. I did email them since i have travel plans but no response yet.

Finally got oath invite, 6 months after passing the test and 5 and a half months after DM. And only because I sent them a nice crafted very polite email asking about my application status. Scarborough office.

Hello,

Today I took my test. However, during the test I noticed that two tabs were open. Without switching to the other tabs, clicked on the X on the tab icons and closed them. I didn’t cheat. However, every time I clicked on the next question, the pop-up message showed up and warned that I’m leaving the exam. I had to click on “I’m back”. Did anyone have the same experience? The message showed up 10 times every time I clicked on “next question”. I don’t know why. I think I messed it up :-( I really tried and prepared well. I’m so worried. Anyone with the same experience? Do you think they would ask me to redo the test?

That's ok you will be able to take the test again after you complete your jail sentence. Next time do it properly and use two different browsers, one for test and one for googling the answers. Lol
