Yes, urgent. I am wondering if it’s same way the online test is ? Or the agent will mark the right answers. I know upon 3 failed attempts they usually do in person test or something

I don't think it will be like the regular online test. This would probably involve someone proctoring your test in person via teams / zoom.

I would highly suggest to start preparing now. Personally, I wouldn't dwell more on this & would just do what they have asked me to do. Just follow the process.

citizenship knowledge test will be administered to you orally (with the questions presented to you in writing) via Microsoft Teams at the date and time stipulated above.

Did you apply for urgent processing? If yes, that's why they might be making that request.

@rajkamalmohanram has probably seen a couple instances of this on the forum.

It says it will 20 questions ( mcq and true false) same timeline. And I heard online test has fill in the blanks
Yes, from what I know, this has happened only for urgent applicants.

Also, someone shared their experience on this forum (I can't find the post) - The IRCC official will show you a PowerPoint slide with the questions, one by one, and you'll have to answer them orally over MS teams.

AFAIK, the scoring factor remains the same. You'll have to get 15/20 questions correct within the stipulated time.

That makes sense.

Thanks. Updated the BG check date on the spreadsheet. However, the "In Progress" date isn't shown in the new dashboard. It is only seen on ECAS .

This status has not been updated by IRCC for a while. I'm appalled by the lack of accountability here. Currently, I've seen several Jan and Feb 2020 applicants being scheduled for oath (in the past 2 weeks).

Yes, I know this isn't right as I have noticed people from 2020 got it already. This tracker got update in June 16, 2021. This is just discouraging when I see they are in May 2019, and now it's June 2021.

Hoping we all get some good news from March applicants. I will complete 3 months in next 5 days since I completed my test :(
