Hi all,

We did the test today and passed with no problems.
Easy test if you study the book as well as some practice questions.
Had the interview and the officer looked at our passports. He saw some stamps in Arabic and asked us to translate those stamps with photocopies of the passport pages then send them with an affidavit from the translator.
He said that they will send us a letter with the requirements within 2 weeks but if we want to save some time then we can start preparing the papers and translation from now.

Anyone have that happen to them?

Ideally you have to translate all your stamps before the interview, but it makes sense that the office said that he will send you an official request requesting to translate your stamps. I think it will delay your process a little bit .

Good Luck!

I would say it's a fingerprint request. Seems to be happening a lot lately.....
Yes, that was indeed the case. I got the fingerprint request at home today. I'm out of the country this week, but I'll take care of it on Monday. Thanks a lot.

Very strange. I got an invite for the test, but I haven't even sent the fingerprints they asked for earlier.

Can someone update my timeline, please?

Hi guys,

I have a concerns. We are a family of four, we are scheduled on March 14 for our interview test. My father is a truck driver, he runs Canada-US, he is physically present 1484; my mother is unemployed, there are times she went on a trip with my father, her physical present 1776 she included 1 trip she based on to my father's logbook, but when she received her FOIA that trip is not included, my brother physical present 1808 he did not include 1 of a trip with my father because he based on his passport stamp, but in his FOIA it is indicated 1 trip he did not included in his physically presence calculator, mine is 1798, I input wrong dates instead of June 15 I put July 3. What step do we need to do to correct it? Thank you in advance.
