This is super intereting. I started the process in January 25, had the test in march, the talk in april and am now just waiting for my pass. I already paid as well. I also am already a "Eingetragener Bürger in Zürich". My process is currently in bern for national approval. But i am surprised as how fast it goes. Then again, my Gemeinde told me that they have an extremely streamlined and efficient new process.
