Notes from Discover Canada - Preparation for the Citizenship Test

[SShehata]

You can use your PR card as an ID document for the test even though it doesn't have a signature because PR card is explicitly mentioned as one of the documents that can be used. There were some reports on the forum who successfully completed their tests with PR card as the ID.

Thanks for your reply. Will do.

I used my PR Card as ID.

Test finally passed, thanks for the help with the links! Much appreciated

Hi, I'll be writing my test in a few days. So I wanted to know out of all the websites mentioned for practice tests, which are the best and more important ones to practice before the test?

I've summarized the book as it was on June 5th, 2021. I suspect there was an update to the discover Canada book after that? Not sure.

OR ... There is a chance I have missed it, I'm not really sure.

Hi, was the book updated in June 2021. If yes, do I access it from the same government website? I'll be writing my test in a couple of days. So just curious to know if Im studying from the correct book?

The latest version can be found on IRCC website =>

Also, I see some confusion between the number of electoral districts being 308 or 338. In case such question is asked and both 308 and 338 are in the answer choices, then which one do you choose? This can be related to all the answers that are outdated in the book.

As per some earlier discussions, if you see both 308 and 338, choose the correct answer (338). However, if you see 4 options and you don't see 338 on the list, then choose 308.

Hi, would questions like who is the leader of a political party or opposition which are given as extra blank questions in the book are generally asked?

Can I also know from which websites can I get to practice real test questions in the past? Are there any such resources?

Hi, I want to give an update that I completed my test and scored 20/20. However, I'm a bit worried about the picture of my drivers license as it was blurry. Some of the biographical information like date of birth was not properly visible though I suppose my name and license number was somewhat visible.

Also, I went out of my room in order to call my lawyer in the middle of taking a picture of my id (after many failed attempts) as my cellphone was in another room. But it was prior to starting the actual test.

So considering these things, I want to ask what are my chances of getting my test. Also how long will it take to surely know that IRCC has approved my test?

Well, Why can't you copy the notes from the forum and print the same thing? I have already posted the notes here, I have the same copy as anyone else.

Copy everything, put it in MS word and print it. I'm not sure how me sending it via email would make any difference.

It depends. If the IRCC official can't read the DOB or name on the ID, then they might request a retest.

However, you leaving the room before starting the test isn't an issue.
