At the ceremony they told us to wait 2 business days for the system to get updated. However, several members reported that as long your ECAS status changes to Complete, you are good to go. I am pretty sure it is not possible to apply for the passport on the same date as the oath ceremony. It...

The eligibility period is 5 years, no exception. As for travel documents, many passports are valid for 5-10 years so as long as your passport is valid during the 5 year preceding your application submit a photocopy of that passport. If the first 2 out of 5 years you have another passport, which...

Based on the above post, it might varies between local offices. This is based on my test/interview. Mine was the Scarborough office and they started interviewing people as soon as they finish the test. Therefore, people who were done within the first 5-10mins pretty much got in and out in less...

I had 2 work permits, 1 POWP (Post graduate work permit) and 1 bridging work permit. I listed them separately even though my status is "temporary worker" for both.

Mine took two weeks. It just showed up in the mail by canadapost.

A lot of people rely heavily on the practice quizes. I am glad to find more and more people who emphasize on reading and studying from the actual book itself.

Same goes for interview. Only answer what they ask, be truthful but be concise. Do not volunteer information.

I believe this is for permanent residential addresses only, not vacation/temporary addresses.

You have to include the 5 month gaps where your son had an expired passport and wrote in the space provided. In my opinion, explanation can include, but not limited to, you forgot to renew and/or you and him had no travel plan etc.

As I have observed in the forum, timeline of 12 months is pretty typical across all provinces. Like others mentioned above, it is not worth to apply from another province and gamble the processing time. There's one case in the forum that I remember. S/he changed provinces in the middle of the...

Diploma/Degree/Certificate obtained from education outside Canada must show the medium of teaching is either English or French. This must be showed on the document for it to be accepted. From CIC website, Did you or do you attend a secondary or post-secondary program in English or French? The...

It is a Canadian public university. I think as long as you can submit a copy of your diploma you will be fine. From CIC website, Did you or do you attend a secondary or post-secondary program in English or French? The program can be in or outside Canada. If you did, send a copy of proof that...

Yes it is overwhelming. That's why it's a good idea to start studying early. Read and understand the content, even one chapter a day will help.

The eligibility period is 5 years so anything happens during this time (i.e statuses, traveling, job etc.) needed to be recorded.

Congrats @raman69 :) Look like it'll take about 3-4 months for the rescheduling process. It's great for those who have the time and no travel plan. I am just curious, did they get back to you before Mar 5 to say they would reschedule you or you simply did not show up for the ceremony. If that...

I moved from east GTA to near London and my file still stayed in the Scarborough office, never got transferred.

There is a very slim chance such ambiguous questions will be asked in the exam. If it gets asked, 308 and 338 will most likely not be included together. When in doubt, go with the book as it is the official study materials. As mentioned above, fill-in-the-blank questions included in the book are...

I still have my original CoPR when I landed. Mine does not have picture on it, just handwritten information filled in by CBSA when I landed.

@new_guy Finally someone said it. Just doing the practice tests alone is no where near enough to confidently pass the test. I said this before, but I will emphasize again. Read the book diligently. Read one chapter a day if that helps you absorb the materials better. In my case I did lots of...
