February 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

Thanks! That's very good score... CONGRATS!

Did you use the free simulation tests on this portal or bought full access for $29?

In my opinion, there is NO NEED to purchase any material or study help. (unless perhaps you struggle with either English/French) All the information is available in the Discover Canada book and there are a multitude of FREE online tests simulations and questions (google is your friend) that, I feel, adequately prepare you for the test itself.

I read the book a few times. Did the questions in the book and worked thru the free online tests a number of times. I scored 20/20 and was done the test in under 5 minutes.

Just my opinion.... and although it seems daunting at first (I only started reviewing the week before the test and was initially worried!) the more you go through the material, the more it becomes more familiar and manageable.

Good Luck!

Hey guys. It's been over 3 months since I got DM and I have yet to get an oath invitation (Scarborough office).
Calling is useless, they literally just check my e-cas. Anyone else in the same situation?

Your opinion is right ,
The same language in discover canada book and the exams booklet .

But it's easer sometimes to practice direct from the exams book.
You will feel more ready for the exam .
Specially this all information you will forget after exam when you waiting the cermoney after

Thanks... I agree.

I downloaded the audio book and finished in two days during my daily evening jogs. Listening helps, but reading the book obviously helps those with photographic memory.

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone let me know that when we pass the Citizenship Test, Do we have to surrender our PR Card right away or they take it on Oath Ceremony day? The reason I am asking because I will be travelling after my Test.

You have to surrender it at time of your Oath.

Why did you have to withdraw for being late? Did they not give you just another date?

I believe that if u cannot attend test or late u should call and ask for re schedule..... And if u don't within 30 days then they will cancel yoir application and ask u to reapply.
Correct me if I'm wrong

I wish if they did ,, but they did not ,, and I did not want to wait more ,, so 2 weeks ago I voluntarily withdraw the application by sending them the withdrawal form ,, Thursday I called in CIC ,, they confirmed that it is ok to reapply at anytime as of Thursday 08/03/2017 ,, so I redid my Fingerprint since the last application I was asked to provide them ,, I am waiting now to get them , I will print the rest of the paper and I will reapply ,,

No need to panic. It's different for everyone. Some get DM the day after the test. Others wait many months after the test before DM shows.
