Hi everyone,

I had my citizenship test in Vancouver CIC expo boulevard on April 17th, please tell me when I can expect to receive the citizenship oath invitation?
About the test, it was a little bit complicated, not even close to the tests in Richmond library, Toronto Library and other online resources! Tell me what do you think?

Thanks,
Vangard
 
Hi,
It will take one month to 4 months, but mostly they send with in one month just wait till May 17th.
GOOD LUCK :)
 
hey Vangard,
I am from vancouver as well. would you mind to share your timeline? My status has been under "in progress" since feb 13, 2012. I wonder how much longer do i approximately have to wait. and sorry for being a bit off from your topic.

joanna
 
Thanks seeuuu for your advise :) I hope I get the oath invitation soon.

Joanna,

here is my time line:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on May 6, 2011.

We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), on May 6, 2011. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

We started processing your application on February 22, 2012.

We sent you a notice on March 15, 2012 to appear and write the citizenship test on April 17, 2012 at 8:01 AM.

Hopefully you’ll receive yours very soon, make sure you read the book as much as you can, the questions are not similar to sample tests available online.

Vangard,
Thanks for sharing your timeline. I do hope i will receive my notice soon. I indeed applied and started processing earlier than u did, finger crossed nothing went wrong with my application.But again, big thanks!
Joanna
 
Vangard, could you please post a few questions? Were the questions completely different from the online practice test questions or just the possible answers were different. How many tricky questions did you have? Was it hard?
Thanks.
 
guys it will take about 4 months from date of Test...

I had my test on Jan 18, and so yesterday i got notice to appear for a citizenship oath on the 11th May....
 
Hi Erikag,

As I mentioned my focus was only on online sources like Richmond library test or Toronto library … and I didn't spend much time on the book, you will be 100% fine if you read the book. since I was not familiar with book, I don't remember the questions but I can tell you to read the captions of all the photos and remember the names and dates mentioned there.
When you do a lot of online tests, basically you memorize the questions and answers so if they change the question you cannot answer it right away but if you read the book properly you can answer to all the questions regardless of knowing the question or not.

Fingers are crossed for you,
Vangard
 
Vangard,

that happened to me !!! I had my test on march 28 2012 and I read the book 1 time and then focus on the Richmond library test and I really memorized all the questions there that when I took the test the half of the questions wasn't there!!!!
So I am affraid about the results.... I hope we have passed the test!!!!
 
christy,

You said you set for citizenship test on March 28th, means almost 4 weeks ago. you should receive a notice soon, plz lemee know when you got it. most of my friends were notified 4 weeks afer their test.

Thanks Vangard! I wanted to read the book a couple of times anyway. Now it seems that it is a good idea to read the book a few more times instead of practicing online. I have already started reading it and memorizing the dates/names/facts. Luckily I am already familiar with some of the dates and historic facts.
I hope you will all get the oath invitation letter soon.
 
Hi guys, any update on those who took the test on April 2012? I took the test April 3.. but still waiting for a letter.
