So glad to see that you have almost reached the finish line, particularly as Vancouver had previously been a bit slow in processing generally. Well done. So pleased for you, wishing you all the best for your Oath ceremony. I have updated the spreadsheet.
I hear you, the wait is incredibly frustrating and the methodology for deciding tests and ceremonies seems difficult to understand. I am also still waiting to get past the 'In Process' stage and have been since November 2018. I don't have a local CIC processing office as my application is from Victoria on Vancouver Island. We wait for temporary sites to be set up for just a few days at a time sporadically throughout the year. I have just seen that the calendar dates for the Victoria 'temporary center' has just been posted online. The next one is May 27, to May 31, 2019. So either I will (hopefully) get an invite to the next stage for those dates in May, OR I will have to wait months, because the previous one to that was January 2019.
I am however, very pleased for all those August applicants who have been and are moving through the stages and those reaching the end of the Citizenship process. I know and identify with how much they want it, it gladdens my heart to see their progress.
