Did my test yesterday. We are 4, 2 got 19 and 2 got 20. the test is easy, study the book, make your own notes and practice the on-line questions and quizzes. The whole thing took 2 hours, let us inside 830 and left 1030 (waiting period between test instructions and to call for the interview about 50 minutes)
The interview is basically to verify the documents, you need to take all originals like PR, driver's license, health card, passports, landing paper, proof of language.
Interview questions like.. where do you work? do you work full time? do you file your income tax?
It was smooth.. so no need to worry. Wish everyone good luck and wish our Oath letter arrive soon :D

Hi.. congratulations. A quick question for you. I assume your application was family one. Can you confirm whether interview was individual or together with other co applicant of family.
Thanks.

Hello Folks. It has not been very pleasant for me. My application is in process since Feb 26th and I haven't heard anything since then.
I don't know why there is no response so far. I see even March applicants have received the test invites. It is not good, hopefully things will change for good soon :) Anyone with the same case?

My interview was very easy. The person interviewing me asked for my passport and I.d (my drivers licence), he asked about trips outside the country, asked if I had ever been in trouble with the police ( I haven't), and confirmed my address. The whole interview was over and done with in 2 minutes.
