Thank you! I hope it goes well. If others are reading who will be taking the test, think ahead and turn off all notifications in order to avoid this stress lol.

How soon did you get the results after the test? Did they ask you anything about it in the interview or were there no mentions of that anywhere?

I wish I had an interview, radio silence for me and it seems like most others after May 2020 months. Looks like they are interviewing/DMing before May months.

AOR on Aug 26 2020 completed the online citizenship test Apr 16th 2021, which was marked completed Apr 19th. Nothing after that.

If you are using windows, go to "Focus Assist" and choose the "Alarms only" option. After that, make sure there are no active alarms for the duration of the test. This should prevent any popups from apps and websites. Because your anti-virus might have the permission to override the Windows notification settings, you might want to disable notifications on your anti-virus separately.

Hello there, did you get any updates since your last comment here? I faced the same situation during the test. Got a pop-up from the antivirus software to restart the computer and I had to close it. I did that in seconds though. I am just hoping that they have a mechanism to record the time of coming back to the test screen so that they can know that I wasn't away from the test form more than 5 seconds.

How many days after the test should I be able to check the status online? Just to see if my results were accepted or not.

Thanks for your response in advance.

Did you receive any updates about your test results? If yes, then how many days after the test did you see a status update online?

I don't think you will have any issues. My test was set to complete very quickly after taking it so never had issues. So no need to worry. In a very unlikely situation where they have questions they will just ask to take the test again (highly unlikely). You should see completed on the tracker for citizenship test over the next week or so if not earlier.

All the best.

Awesome. Thanks :)
I've faced the same earlier today.
I passed my test , but just before I click submit I received an email that caused the test to prompt me to close the other window. It took me a couple of seconds to click I'm back. Is that fine?
What happened afterwards. Any update please?
Thank you,
