I’ve been trying to take the test since my window started (a couple days ago), but I keep getting error message on the sign-in page saying I haven’t been invited to take the test based on their records. I emailed the Winnipeg office and the technical department team and they said to give it time.

What’s the point of scheduling the test window/date(s) if I can’t take it starting from that date? IRCC can be very frustrating at times smh.

The waiting continues!!!!

From what I have read here, the interview seems not to be mandatory. It depends on the officer and the specific applicant. But nowadays, the request for scanned passport copies seem to be a new development (everyone seems to be getting the request) and maybe they will start conducting interviews for every applicant.

We just wait and comply with their request(s).

Those of you who submitted the online application, did you resize your photo to 420x540? The digital photo I got is 1200 x 1680.

The photographer should have sized it to the specified size. I think you shouldn't do the editing yourself but rather let the photographer send you the pix that meets IRCC specifications. Recall, if you modify a pix, they will do.

Hi Namratha,
You have to wait for 2 days for the mail to hit your inbox and after sending your finger prints you can see an update in the tracker stating that they received your fingerprint results and will review them soon.
Hey Pran one more question, once u did the fingerprint how long did it take to update in tracker?

Finally was able to sign in and take the test, I passed it!!

I actually was more excited getting the AOR (because I had to wait for so long) than I was passing the test. The invitation and passing the test didn’t really excite me much haha.

Hopefully they don’t make us wait another forever for citizenship ceremony :cool:
