The pace of oaths is increasing in Montreal recently based on the message on different forums / facebook groups. I saw at least 4 different dates for the first week of October (4th, 5th, 6th and 8th).
And it correlates way more with the AOR than DM... A majority of applicants that received an invite recently have an AOR in August or September 2020, only if your application is smooth (meaning no test rescheduled, non-routine, fingerprint, etc).
Delivered: mid-March 2020
AOR: early September 2020
In process: mid-November 2020
Test invite: mid-February 2021 (Got the email, but the status hasn't been updated on cic yet)
Not urgent, Montreal, single applicant, English forms, fully bilingual.
My test changed to Complete in the tracker about 2 weeks ago. Nothing since. From what I've seen in these forums, the interview is usually around a month after the tests, so we'll see.
There are a lot of guys here with AOR from 2019 who are still waiting for the oath. I would say, it's related to DM. Recently, some people with DM in April and May reported an oath invite for the beginning of October. FrenchToast has DM in June and is scheduled for oath on Oct 15th...
People report oaths almost every day in October. It looks like the Montreal office decided to clear some "traffic jam".
The last update I had was on 10 August 2021 as it says completed with all checks but the application status still says "in progress". Don't understand where my applications at. Mine is Dec 2020 applicant with AOR received in Feb 2021.
