Hello everyone , I have got my AOR yesterday. Application delivered on 31st October. My name is entered twice though. For example it says XY YX XY YX instead of saying XY YX only. All my Canadian identification were issued with just one name which have two parts. Canadianimmigration have taken my given name from back home passport and used it as last name and left given name or first name column blank. Now since this citizenship online status is repeating my name. Should I notify them or just leave it? Thanks for your help.

There is a a study book called Discover Canada, read it at least twice then you should be good. Most of people here indicate that the test questions always from the book.

You can access Discover Canada contents here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/discover-canada.html

Discover Canada is authentic source to prepare for citizenship test. So I would suggest first go through it in detail and only then as 'extra' preparation, google citizenship test questions and take quizzes online.
  • Read it online or order hard copy (its free of charge)
  • You can also download audio of the book which is about 2.5 hours long
  • Take help from your friends and family to prepare you for questions

What’s RQ?
I am seeing some people are getting a request to do either fringer print or submit a large form detailing all your stay in Canada and visits outside Canada. They want to verify all the information.

Hi fellow Calgary applicants.

For those who have received test invites, did they come via email, mail, both? ECAS is showing Feb. 8th, so far nothing via email or postal mail.

Will call in a week or two if we don't see anything.
For me, both.
