Guys when you get invited to the oath,, what does that line say online, and if you got an RQ what does it say as well.. Please help!!

Sometimes e-cas updates and sometimes it does not(in terms of test invite, oath invite or RQ). So don't rely on ecas totally. Only the physical mail sent by CIC will have the required information.

For oath invite ecas will state about the letter been sent on xx date for ceremony to be held on xx date.

For RQ, ecas will state about letter sent on xx date asking about some information or document request

Hello Guys,

Here is my test/interview experience,

Regarding my test preparation:

• I read the Discover Canada book thoroughly two times.
• I burned the Discover Canada Audio book on a couple of CDs and played them whenever I was in the car, for two weeks.
• I practised on-line tests from the following sources
  • <a href="http://www.citizenshipsupport.ca">Citizenship Support</a>, excellent website worth the money, lots and lots of questions.
  • <a href="http://www.citizenshipcounts.ca">Citizenship Counts</a>, not a bad source for covering the basics.
  • <a href="http://www.v-soul.com/onlinetest/">v-soul</a>, covers the basics.
  • <a href="http://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship/">Your library Citizenship test</a>, covers the basics.

after all the test was dirt simple, finished the test in a few minutes and I was the first one to be called for interview.

During the interview the Citizenship Officer was cheerful, which put me at ease. She asked for my identity documents (Driver Licence and health Card), and my PR card---she did not ask for my landing paper. Then she confirmed my current address and job, she made sure they matched what was listed on the application. After that she asked for my passports/travel documents and she checked every stamp on it, be sure to bring English (or French) translation for any none English (or French) stamps. Finally, she said everything is fine, and that I am good to go. I did not time it, but I doubt the interview lasted more than 3 minutes---I did not have a lot of stamps.

One more thing during the interview she asked me to sign Form CIT 0039, she said it is a "new form". I don't remember the details but it was more or less a declaration that I did not do anything the would otherwise prohibit me from obtaining Canadian Citizenship.

I hope that was helpful,
Cheers

Hello Ejmal,
Thank you for the handy post. For the exam, the support citizenship gives the impression that it is all dates and names and I actually panic that this is the case. Is it really like that or the exam is kind of easier?
Thanks

Hello Hope for best,

My exam did not contain any questions about dates (or personal names). However, I would not count on this, a friend of mine had a different exam at the same local office and he had almost 5 questions involving dates and names.

You have time until the test so keep repeating the exams over and over again. You will remember those dates/names at end just by mere repetition. That's how I memorized them.

Good luck
Ejamal
