It depends on the #s of test takers. I'll say 3 hrs max.

Hi folks,

My wife and I applied as a family, and are going to take the test next week, but not sure if CIC will interview us together or separately.

Could anyone who was in the same situation as mine answer my question?

The call center agent asked my friend to send a letter to the local Ottawa CIC office, and inform them about the typing mistake in their test invitation letter. I think it would be a good idea to write them a letter regarding the mistake in the testing date.
Thank you Watu . I believe it is a good idea . I will send this letter tomorrow. I will post if I receive any new invite .
Watu would you please post or send me a message when ur friend receive any new communication from CIC . I really appreciate it .

Thank you

Sirine

You should rely on official "Discover Canada" guide. You should read and learn it multiple times.

You can search for google for 3rd party test preparation websites however, don't rely on them to pass the test as they are just good for learning purpose only.

I again emphasize you to learn the "Discover Canada" book properly multiple times.

Separately, if you have kids, one of the parents should bring kid's documents. At first, office will call the main applicant, in my case it was me, will ask regular questions about work, wife, kids.
Then after officer will call your wife, and ask about your work etc. So some cross questions .. to make sure you both know about each of you :)
Interview takes like 5 minutes for each ... and you good to go. Don't worry and good luck

Wife and I did our test last week in Scarborough Centre and were interviewed together. The interview lasted about 5 minutes. We were not asked any question about the kids.

Just as Thecoolguysam said, read the book very well.
We didn't have questions on date apart from one that casually made reference to one date but that doesn't mean other people will not have dates questions. I will also advise you to know something unique about your province.

Best wishes to you.
