if you are outside canada then you must inform them because then may be there is some different link to take the test. It is usually written in the document which you get to inform them at a particular email id.

You should inform them. We did the same, and they responded back in less that a day.

They will acknowledge that you are outside Canada, approve your test, ask you to check the option "taking the test from within Canada" option (as they have not changed the questionnaire to provide an option for taking the test from outside of Canada) and then lastly, ask you to use the same link you got in your email.

I am surprised that you have not got the response in two weeks.

I didn’t receive any email with test link…. Is it the same email with test invite? Or I was supposed to get another email?
