Is there anyone who did fingerprints at the local police station?

Is it a good idea to take the test more than once, even though you pass the first test?

Just in case?

Why? In case of what?

It depends, some test offices are quick as many people got their test marked complete within a few days, but many other people waiting more than a few weeks. I passed test Mar 18 and still waiting.
Some people posted that they passed test between Feb - mid Mar, no update, called IRCC, and IRCC operators said they didn't see their test in the system maybe because the test is not reviewed yet at event offices (local office). Sounds like test is registered into the system by event offices.
And some of them asked Vancouver office and got reply that Vancouver office received their test result but did NOT open it yet. Mine is Vancouver. So I think it would take a long time.

If you have printed and/or emailed copies of your test result, it is your proof documents. But those are only if you clicked "print" or "send" buttons at the end of test yourself.

I was thinking of call IRCC to know whether they received my test result or not, but I changed my mind as I found this, and I have copies of my test results.

Hi All,

My AOR- 26Feb25

Yesterday I received request for sending copies of my travel documents which were active in last 5years to access my physical presence requirement.
My background, citizenship test and language steps are completed.
Did anyone rec any such request or heard or seen anyone receiving such request.

Since the processing is all stalled, one would need to wait for a long time for the tracker to reflect the test completion.

So chances of the test getting invalidated is high.

So having two or three passed test results may increase the chances of not having to go through the test again. Don't want to prep again and get delayed indefinitely.

Or taking it multiple times clogs the system. I don’t think taking it more than once accomplishes anything good. It may not be possible either as it’s not clear to me the link would work after you pass the test.

Additionally, if I were an IRCC officer I’d be suspicious of someone taking if multiple times after passing it. Is that person trying to get more info on the test to help someone else cheat? Finally, my understanding is that if your test is invalidated you don’t just retake it, a different test situation is required.

for what it’s worth, it taking awhile to get validates doesn’t mean much. I got 20/20 and it took from March 21 to April 7 to get validated. IRCC even says when you pass the test it could take months to validate.

Possibility of suspicion of try to collect information from test to help someone else - this is quite possible - this one reason is sufficient to not take multiple tests. Let the application get delayed.
