Hi, Im not in the spread sheet. But here is my status.

4. Test invitation: January 17, 2018
5. Test date: January 30, 2018 at 12:45 PM
6. DM: TBD

Hopefully, it will change to DM soon. During my interview, they asked me about a USA stamp on my passport and I couldnt remember where I went They said they didnt see my enter to Canada record. That night, I remember I got that stamp because I tried to enter to USA by plane, and after going through usa custome, my plane got cancel, so I had to go back for another day. However, I got about 285 days more than I needed, I really hope it will be fine.

Can you confirm it is a single application and the physical presence days is aprox - 1380? I have added rest of the details to the tracker...

my wife postponed her citizenship about 3 years ago. In her case, the test invite was sent after she had left the country and we called CIC and were told we have 30 days to provide proof of absence (tickets booked 2 months ago, travel boarding pass and explanation letter); after reviewing all that - CIC sent another invite 1 month later.

I feel, Pre-arranged trip is a valid reason to request to postpone the exam. It could add few weeks of delay to the process - but if you had to do the trip - you go to do it...Hope this helps.

I decided against postponing my test and postponed my flight instead.

All non-English or non-French stamps in passport(s) that cover your eligibility period need to be translated for the interview.

Note: stamp could be dated outside your eligibility period, but if passport covers even a portion of your eligibility, it needs to be translated. Otherwise, the officer won't know if the stamp is inside or outside your eligibility period.

Thanks, can I do the translation by myself?

Thanks, can I do the translation by myself?

Answer is in the guide:

Important information: Translations must not be done by the applicants themselves nor by members of the applicant’s family. This includes a parent, guardian, sibling, spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner, grandparent, child, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew and first cousin.
