from my own observance while being there, and also guys posting in another forum. If you are in Sydney metro and applied more than one year ago, I think you would expect to get the invite anytime soon. Sometimes they may call you, so keep your phone with you during the day. (In my case, I just got an email with the test date/time and the address. You will be able to reschedule if you want to test earlier.)

Early August, 2019. I think the Department is now focusing on NSW applicants that applied in or before September 2019, aka the very old ones. I assume you are from NSW too, right? Then you wouldn't hear anything until early next year, IMO.

This is not correct. It's been open for around 1 month now. Actually, I had my test in the Sydney CBD office last week. They seem to interview 3-5 people every 15 minutes, as I can see.
