Hi All,
I took my test in Montreal while I leave in Quebec City. The day after I got the test invite, an agent from Montreal office called me and asked me if I prefer to take my exam in Quebec City but this would lead to further delay, I replied that I don't have any problem to move to Montreal for the test.
I arrived early in the day of the exam and there was a considerable number of applicants taking the test with me.
First, they asked everyone to show up his PR card and test invitation and marked the presence, they we entered the exam hall.
The exam was not so easy the test practice sites and mobile application, so I strongly recommend to study very well and read the book twice at least. After the exam, you stay in your place and you can easily see the officers correcting the exam copies and putting the corrected copies in the applicant's files. They call the names in random order. When you hear name, you move towards the officer who holds your file and she tells you where to go for the interview.
During the interview which I did in French, she verified my passports (the old and the new one), the entry and exit stamps, and gave her the translation of non English or French stamps before she asks for it.She asked about my work, what I do there, my previous studies, what I was doing before coming to Canada, about my family and asked me why I did not apply with my wife in the same file. Then she told me if I prefer to do the oath in Montreal or Quebec City and I told me that it does not matter. I told her that I have a travel plan in April and I would like to have my passport before it and she took a note of that. Finally, she told me that I got 18/20 in the exam and they will send me the oath invitation by e-mail and I should check it regularly.
The whole process from arrival to leaving the exam place took about two and half hours.
