Update for me:
Test invite letter: Feb 22
Test date: March 8
Location: Toronto!

Maybe you all can help me with a question. My test is scheduled for 7:45am in Mississauga. I am signed up to take a one-day course the same day, starting at 9:30am at Bloor and Spadina in Toronto - so I expect a lot of traffic on the drive from Mississauga to central Toronto. I really don't want to miss the course, but of course I don't want to postpone my citizenship either. Does anyone know how long it takes to write the citizenship test? Do you think I can be out of there by, say, 8:30am?[/QUOTE official website says that you should expect to spend roughly 2 hours for the entire Test event.

 

[daman8906]

You should expect 2 hours for the entire event according to IRCC or CIC.

My test is on Feb 27. Can someone please let me know if the decision will be made on the same day and the oath will be on the same day too? I'm asking because there are so many people in the tracker who have mentioned as "test and oath same day".

DM may take anywhere from few hours to a few weeks. Oath is usually many weeks after the test. Please refer to the spreadsheet to make an educated guess.

Test and oath on the same day is a rare exception, not the norm.

The normal wait between Test and Oath ranges from a few weeks to a few months depending on the processing office.
