I don't think you will be asked to take the test again. They may ask you to send a better picture of your ID. I have already read such concern from a candidate but all what they were asked to do is to send a new picture of ID.
Whether the website application will click the picture through webcam and we have to show the ID in front of camera. OR, we have to manually click the photo of ID and upload it. ???

The first option. you have to show the ID in front of camera and press a button on your website application. It's very easy. Just make sure that the picture you take is clear. I had to retake a picture many times before I got it very clear. hhhh

I read the Guide the first time keeping notes (wasn’t necessary but it helps me remember), the second time just a light read. I did the online free tests every night, 2 or 3/ night and watched the YouTube video with 414 questions 2ice. The test questions weren’t very difficult but not very easy either. No years, but I would recommend to learn the most important ones. I scored 20/20 and finished it in 3-4 minutes.

Hi there, my application tracker status right now is everything complete, except for the citizenship ceremony which says "not started." Today, I received an auto-generated email with a letter from the Registrar of Canadian Citizenship with instructions to download an e-certificate. However, I have not received any communications about the citizenship ceremony yet. And the download link does not work. What does it mean for my application and what's next?

You will receive another email with the formal invitation letter in a few days. Your tracker will also be updated shortly. This is good news!
