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.

Still I don’t see any temporary setup for kelowna or Kamloops yet ?? Yes it’s frustrating

Now I made up my mind to renew my PR card.

Well done, that is great news! Fantastic that you were able to have the interview and Oath ceremony in the same week, a huge relief for you. I have updated the spreadsheet. Thank you for keeping the rest of us August applicants updated.

I know, that seems quite unfair. But there is always hope that the next update next month, may include April and May dates for Kelowna / Kamloops. I will keep my fingers crossed for you because I know how soul destroying it is to keep waiting. Check ECAS regularly as well just in case.

Oh, sorry to hear that. I have made a note in the notes on the spreadsheet. Wishing you luck for a new date that fits.

Wow!!! Didn't know until now that, inspite of having to wait for your own application to move forward, you have been cheering up and motivating everyone in this thread spreading your positivity.
You have been promptly updating everyone's statuses and responding to almost every anxious soul's message on here. Kudos to your selfless contributions to this forum.

Littleun is a gem, such an awesome person
