I was looking through all your posts here and I got a sense that your general timelines are still okay. I applied for my Citizenship in Feb 2010 - I've already taken the Citizenship test on Feb 2011, when I got the RQ. It's now Jan 2014 and NOTHING! I got the same letter mentioned bellow, which was sent to my old address, of course, the same address I haven't lived in years and had been updated on their webpage.
My heart just sinks to the fact that people who have been for much less time have already got their Citizenship. I guess we only need to wait...

So sorry to hear about your situation. It seems really long for you.
Most of us here got RQ before test. RQ after test is different I think. I hope that you will get an answer from them soon.

Mississauga office appears to be an office for applicants who didn't need RQ.
Scarborough and St. Clair for people who got RQ.
I live in Scarborough, no RQ request and my citizenship test is in Mississauga in 2 weeks.
It seems the timelines are all over the place - it seems CIC are pushing forward with test dates. I've seen some people submit RQ in mid 2013 and they got test date in Jan in St Clair and myself I submitted my RQ Jan 2013 and also my test is next week
Liked your forum a lot and thought I would contribute.
