I got an invitation to do the citizenship test today. My test window is 5/23 - 6/12.
Also my background verification was complete on 5/11. Can admin update the tracker for me please?

Now that I'm in the "waiting stage" for the Oath ceremony, I thought I should also share my timeline:

Congrats to fellow March applicants who have completed their testing, and Goodluck to others who will be doing so in the upcoming days.

It's my first time posting in this forum since 2018/early 2019 when this forum was like a bestfriend in keeping me updated/informed regarding my PR process. Looking back, It's just unbelievable that I have almost completed the process of being a Canadian citizen!

what is your processing office, you can find in test invite email.

I checked the invite email but couldn't find it. I also logged into my tracker too. Does it exactly say "Processing office" because I didn't see anything regarding this?

I read Discover Canada and highlighted the details in the pdf to review. Then would go over the highlighted items a few times till I remembered them.
I also did practice tests online. The online tests from Toronto, Richmond and other public libraries and a few others were helpful.
After doing these I found the test very easy. Like many have pointed out, they want you to pass the test. Just take your time reading the questions.

yup, I got them via mail and it took close to 4weeks before it arrived in my mail. So expect it to arrive soon for you.

There is a pdf version you can download as well.

Does it usually take a few days for the application profile to update after completing the test? I completed my test two days ago but when I login to my application it says that they're still waiting for me to complete the test.
