    Hi everyone. I have a question. I received my test invite by email, but not by regular mail. Can I use the email invite as my official confirmation for the test appointment? On ECAS, it says that: "We sent you a notice on July 10, 2018 to appear and write the citizenship test on July 26...

    Sorry if this has already been answered before, but I need some help preparing for the test. I am really bad at remembering names and dates, and the Discover Canada book seems full of them! What should I memorize and what should I leave out?

    So today I unfortunately join the "100+ Days of IP Club."

    150+ days here since IP. I called IRCC this morning... was told that I should wait patiently for the test invite. Hope I get it soon :( [Kitchener office]

    Couldn't agree more. My application has been in process since January 18th, 2018 [Kitchener office]. I just called IRCC and was told to wait patiently for the test invite (they said it "usually" comes via email). Really hope it comes soon :(

    Email or ECAS update?

    My application has been "in process" since January 2018. I am going crazy checking ECAS twice a day. I want to know if I will get an email update if anything changes?
