I have just submitted my Citizenship application online and it was fairly simple. I have a question about Police certificates which I see discussed here, I didn't see that anywhere on the application so why or when is it required?

Just passed my test! 18/20. For some reason, I got a lot of True and False and Fill in the Blanks. But if you read the guide twice, you will get the 15 easily. They will have around 4 tricky questions. Dates are important folks!

Yes, you should.

Read Discover Canada at least twice.

This is a sticky thread in this forum, it has a summary of the book in English and French and a lot of websites to practice sample tests.

Notes from Discover Canada and Sample tests.

There are a lot of resources on Youtube, audiobooks, practice tests, etc.

Hope this helps.
Thanks!

I've received the test invite email on November 17, 2021.
Test window was from November 19, 2021 to December 9, 2021.

I've attempted the test today (November 26, 2021) and PASSED.
Please update the tracker.

Cheers

A quick question, I have received my GCMS information Request for Citizenship Application. (Out of curiosity)

Everything on there that is not hidden are the stuff that I already know. ie. The information that I have provided during my citizenship application.

There are no such things as "Officer's Notes/ Officer's remarks". (ie. Additional notes that an IRCC officers have made)

They have also hidden a number of pages under "History". (the following pages have been redacted as per S.12)

The only useful information that I found was the primary office that is processing my (online) citizenship application.

Am I able to request to read more about what's redacted ?

Since you have passed your test, my best advice is to give them a space of 2 to 3 months before asking for another gcms notes. Perhaps by that time you may have taken your oath or about to.
