Ok Guys, we both passed the test today. I got 20/20 and wife 19/20. Interview went on for a good half hour with checks of all stamps and documents. Finally we both got RQ.

Can anybody give me a hint on what I should expect from this questionnaire? I already know it takes long and it's a non-routine, etc. But what do they actually request?

Thanks
Isn't it on the RQ document? I thought that it explained what documents would be necessary. I'm sorry to hear that your application has become longer and not shorter.

It's strange that you got the RQ so promptly -- my wife and I had a long test where we mostly went over stamps and passports, and we weren't able to show the officer everything she wanted. Within a month, though, we both had oath invitations. Did you apply with fewer than 1095 days?

Yes, I applied with less than 1095 days. The test was today and she got all stamps verified, maybe around 30 stamps. Only one or two were missing or not able to be verified. She promptly said she was going to issue RQ for both of us and it should arrive in a week.

Anyone explain to me the meaning of this message ??? ???
Do you missed the examination date
Why they sent me to check I was more than a 55 year old law applied in
Am I in the development of new law

my on-line status has changed
We sent you a notice on January 13, 2016 to appear and write the citizenship test on January 13, 2016 at 12:15 PM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

I have not received the notice :mad: :mad:
I don't know what should I do
Any advice
Thank you​
I suspect there is some confusion at CIC end. Speak to Call Center Agent and explain them, also send a registered letter to CIC.
Dont take any chances, knowing how irresponsible is CIC


Were you over 55 years of age at the time of applying ? If so, may be CIC did not realized that are exempted from test under old rules, thought you are under new rule and sent you the test invitation. Look like CIC have messed up between old and new rules.

On other hand, if you consider of preparing for the test and get this out of your way.

Please read "Discover Canada" from CIC website or you can try this self test.....http://www.apnatoronto.com/canadian-citizenship-test-practice/

Wish you all the best.

Thank you Canadiandesi2006 for your response

Yes I am over 55 years old when he made a citizenship application
I contacted them and they said this is a mistake of the system
And they told me send an email to the local office
I hope that does not go on too much time to send another citizenship test​
