Montreal, Quebec
Application submitted: 16th Oct 2011
Acknowledgment: 29th Oct 2011
Booklet received: 6th Nov 2011
Processing started: 10th Nov 2012
Still has status " In process"
Does anyone know how long it will take after In-process status for test?
My application is also in Montreal. I submitted in July 2011. My application started in process in July 2012, and I was called first time for the test in Dec 2012, but skipped and haven't get any response since then.
Usually, it's 19-20 months from application date to test.

I have not taken the test yet..just got the notification to get ready for it last week..it might take a year, but if I have the hunch that things are speeding up, I have a friend who applied in 2012 and it took him 7 months to get a notification saying they had received the application, in my case it was only 3 months. My friend, by the way, is still waiting for anything to happen.

Test Data Received on Jan 2014, test date is Feb 13 2014
So things do seem to be speeding up. I was expecting to wait at least 12 months after sending the RQ to hear any news, it only took 2. Mine's a pretty straightforward case, though.
Give them a call, my experience calling CIC has always been good, it takes a while to connect to an operator but oce you do they are very polite and give you reasonable answers..34 months is way to long

dear FL1040
I just got an RQ; after you filled the questionnaire and sent, did you have to see a judge or they just reviewed your questionnaire and gave you a decision by mail?
