It means that your police checks and security background checks have started at Sydney office and once these are done then your file will be transferred to your local IRCC office.
Just got off call with an agent and he looked into my file and confirmed the same to me.

I see, thank you! What tools are people using to study. I really prefer books to be honest. But any suggestion may help.

Citizenship test - Study Guide


The only official study guide for the citizenship test is Discover Canada: The Rights and Responsibilities of Citizenship, available from IRCC at no cost.

During that test, you will have to answer questions evaluating your ability to communicate in English or French and your knowledge and understanding of Canada.

Please visit our website to obtain:

This is a communication from IRCC. You can also order a physical copy of the Discover Canada book from the link above.

Good luck.

Don't worry they will ruin it only for themselves as IRCC is clear about it on their website. They won't punish everyone else because of some lazy people cannot read a book and spend sometime practicing online.

On the one hand, I can empathize because some people are terrible test-takers - I've seen people get severe panic attacks before exams, completely blank out....the works.

But on the other hand, actually taking an approach of memorizing answers instead of trying to absorb and learn properly with an interest in the subject matter makes it difficult to find any sort of sympathy. The topic of the importance of the test itself is enough of a contentious topic on this forum without people like this adding more fuel to the fire with their approach to it.
