Its not hard but I wont say it is easy too. What I did was read the book cover to cover. Then I did lots of online practice tests. Some of the dates are key. The book has a lot of dates but some dates are very important. So when you do multiple online practice tests, you get an idea on what dates are important to know.

Hi everyone, I applied for citizenship application jointly with my spouse online. Both of our background verification completed on January 30. My husband received test invite and it shows as complete under his tracker on March 3. However, I have still not received any test invitation. The tracker still shows as citizenship test not started. The latest update I see on the tracker is dated March 2 (which is most likely a system update which everyone got). We sent reply to the email from whom my husband received test invite. Did not receive any response from them. He got test invite from Scarborough office. Should I wait for my application to get processed separately or should I raise a webform.

Yes I understand. If you are getting 80% and above in all practice tests, you can safely do the test since you only need 15/20 to pass.

I felt like this when I was studying. Woke up one Saturday morning at 5 am and was like F it. I’m taking the test, because the uncertainty started affecting my sleep lol. I took it at 5 am got 17/20. Went back to sleep and slept like a baby the rest of the day.

Thank you for your suggestion. We were also thinking of the same. But looking at so many replies we saw on the portal where IRCC does not entertain applications processed within timeline (23 months) at the moment, we wanted to check if someone else has gone through similar situation and what happened in their case. Will definitely try calling though. Thanks.

Could you please post the response that you will receive from IRCC? I am in a similar situation

I think test is pretty easy. You can prob score 15/20 without any preparation
For 20/20 read the book at least once

 

[SaW123]

The most difficult part for me was taking a clear pic of my photo id before the start of the test and getting all the pre test steps done before the 15 minutes expiration lol

 

[SaW123]

Does anyone know the recent trends in oath invitation?
How long do you reckon it will take for the oath invite after the test

Congratulations! Should be updated in couple of days.

Hello, How to prepare for the test? I see a lot of dates and names of French and British people, it is difficult to remember the names with the date of the event. Please suggest any tips. Thanks
