Received test invitation request on Oct 4, 2022.

Questions:

1. I would like to know if the citizenship test is online, would I be taking it from home or I have to go to the test center ? I have recently moved from Ontario to Alberta and don't want to fly back to Ontario to just take the test.

2. Also, should I change the address on my application ASAP or should I wait? I have just moved to another province, hence I haven't changed the address. Would it have any impact on the processing time, it's online so I don't trust the processing SLA?

you will be taking the test at home online

you should probably think about changing your address, especially since the certificate will be mailed to you.

Your Test Invitation was more than a month back. Did you already not receive the test window details and the email on how to take the test?

Made a typo, I received it on Oct 4.

Do they send an email or do they send a postal mail at the address pertaining the citizenship test?

If you mentioned email in your application and received AOR via email, you should receive details of the test via email too. What is your location?
