When did you write your test

My BG completed on Jan 6th (Updated in the tracker on Jan 10th). No updates after that. No test invitation yet. Anyone in the same boat ? I live in Mississauga .

What's the current trend avg time between BG verification & getting test invite?
I see many people got BG completed on & around 25th Jan and yet waiting for test invite.

My BG completed on Jan 3rd and still waiting frustratingly. I know a bunch of people in this thread whose BG completed mid to late Dec and still waiting.

I waited about a month for a test invite, BG completed Dec 16, test invite Jan 14. I think it's pretty normal wait for many offices.

I got my test invite after 25 days of BG complete but tracker was updated after 21 days.

I have just passed my citizenship test 20/20.
I was too nervous but it was easier than I expected. It took me 5 mins and few seconds to complete it.

My spouse is yet to give theirs.

All the best to all of you!

Mine took 5 days

Someone once said here if I remember correctly ECAS is only for paper application. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Send them a webform asking to confirm if they have the new address. When I sent mine they responded saying it has been updated

That's correct. ECAS is only for paper applicants, they also have access to the new tracker
Online folks follow the new tracker only.

Thank you both, that explains it!! Fingers crossed we'll get the test invite soon.

Quick Question :

My spouse and I both got a Ghost Update each on Jan 20th. Then we got our test invites on Monday Jan 23rd. Our Account was still same.

On Jan 25th I got three new notifications in my account - My BG was marked "Complete" and My Citizenship Test changed to "In Progress". And a box was created on top about test saying "Waiting on You"

But my Spouse's account is same as of Jan 20th. The BG is "In Progress" and Citizenship test is still "Not Started" and no box created on their account, even though they have their Test Invite in their email.

Is this common? Should we be worried?

Processing Office is Scarborough.

There is some issue going on with the tracker that the status are not getting updated with the latest data. Its impacting few people like your spouse. As you already have the test invite email, you should go ahead with the test once you are ready. The status should get fixed overtime.
