Hi all,
I finished the test and happy to get 20/20. My experience is - around 15 - 16 questions were easy if you study the DISCOVER CANADA. 4-5 questions are tough and you need to have done enough homework to get them right. It took around 8 minutes to complete the test and I went over it for many times. The lady who did the interview was good and just checked my Passport, PR Card, Language proofs and COPR. She then informed that I will get my invitation to the oath in 2-3 months. ;D

Hi there. Congratulations! Just a quick question and I have read this on this forum but that was from a 2008 post so I don't know if it still applies to the current test. Is it true that you have to get all the correct 5 answers on the last part of the test?

Never heard of that. Passing score is 75% - at least 15 correct answers

No, this isn't true!

That's good to hear. So doesn't matter which part of the test you make mistake on as long as you get the passing score of 75% (15 correct answers), right?

Hi,
I have a question to the fellows with family applications who have already passed the test and interview.
Will the interview be held for the whole family together at the same time ? or each adult family member will be interviewed separately ?
Thanks

Usually it's done separately for each member. Its the same routine questions most of the time , where you stay, what do you do for living? family, trips etc..

In our case, my wife and I were interviewed together (but one person at a time). We were invited to seat before the officer together. Our children are below 14 years and they did not go with us.

If the minor is below 14 years, they don't need to write the test and their physical presence does not count. We applied for 3 of our children who are below 14 years, and none of them even followed us to the test/interview. They didn't even ask anything about them, only me and my wife. So, your minor child is below 14, don't worry about that. Just get all your original documents ready.
