    Decision Made after Test?

    Mine did too - probably has to do with the glitch that caused all of our "transferred to local office" lines to disappear. I honestly wouldn't worry; I'm sure we are all fine!

    LOT line disappeared

    Mine also did, after updating to "decision made" on June 3rd. Hopefully will get oath invite on Monday or Tuesday :)

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    Nope! Nothing on ECAS for the CIT0520 - just the 5th line where i was scheduled to take the test, and nothing after! I think it's because, by that time, one officer is overlooking your file so there doesn't need to be a paper trail for other officers to maybe review your file? Who knows.

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    I traveled too much - I have a bit of a passion for traveling :) However in 2011 I made a lot of weekend trips back to my home city (Chicago - an hour flight from Toronto) so they wanted to get info from me from CBSA. CBSA pulled up day trips which I had taken but had not noted in my original...

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    My local office is Scarborough :) Someone who took the test the day before me got their oath invite in the mail today - so hopefully soon for me too - perhaps when I get home from class tonight :) Will be 20 years to wait until Monday otherwise, lol.

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    The officer told me I may get form CIT0520 at my interview as I traveled a lot and applied with only 1095 days. I got the CIT0520 about a month later (see timeline below) and sent in the required documents. My ECAS status changed to "decision made" on June 3rd which means oath letter...

    Decision Made after Test?

    Cool - so even though I was one day short, and owned up to it and explained myself (due to a two day trip I 100% forgot I took, before I became a permanent resident!), my "decision made" is probably a positive response and I can slightly relax? :) Because yes, I would think that if they were...

    Scarborough office / timeline after test

    First lady I had was heavier, long dark curly hair. A mixture of nice and strict? Emotionally unavailable? lol. Second interview I got to have (for traveling a lot - whatever) the guy was nice, bald, middle aged, and apologetic (because I never expected a "secondary interview" on the day...

    Decision Made after Test?

    Hi everyone - My ECAS updated today as well, saying "decision made". I took my test March 25th, was issued a CIT0520 (for concerns over day and weekend trips back to my hometown of Chicago) so I sent that back (unfortunately, realized in this I was short 1 day but was honest about it) and...

    Scarborough office / timeline after test

    Scarborough office / timeline after test

    Wow that makes me really angry for you. Sounds like the lady I had - everything was fine and I also scored a 20/20 then she had issues with the fact I flew to the US a lot during 2011 to visit family and I got hit with a CIT0520 a month later. Lame.

    second citizenship exam

    You can also download apps to your phone to help you practice - I must have taken 200 practice tests! Re-read the discover Canada book too and make sure you understand it. I also found with the tests - you get to understand how the questions and answers are worded and can see patterns on...

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    Doesn't really matter how fast it was processed as it looks like I'll be waiting 40 months now anyway.

    CIT 0520 after citizenship test

    You mean after I send them everything they want they can still hit met with another CIT 0520? $#$%# me. I'd also be getting an MP involved. Man that makes me so paranoid - lots of little day and weekend trips to the US in 2011 (before I even became a permanent resident) is what got them all...

    Scarborough office / timeline after test

    I've noticed some people who got RQs before or after the test got their applications sent to Montreal for further processing no matter where their office was. Did not make a lot of sense to me, to be honest.

    Scarborough office / timeline after test

    Nope - still says I was invited to take the test (5 lines). I wonder if my file will also be transferred to Montreal's like some other people's.

    Question about 6B (When did you first come to Canada to live)

    I came to Canada to live as a student in 2002 and didn't get PR until 2012 - I put September 3rd, 2002 as when I came to Canada to live, since that's the truth! In the citizenship application they want proof of studies in English anyway, so I sent my uni transcript as proof of that - but no...
