Actually just got DM this morning. Hope you get yours soon too!
October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule
- Thread starter HamiltonApplicant
- Start date
I am in process since January 12 . I have called cic today the agent said your background check in progress and waiting for the officer decision schedule test or ask for more documents what does it mean inprogress with background check is that good or i have to wait for long time ? I am in mississauga office .
How long it takes to do background check varies from individual to individual. No one here can give you an estimate. Background checks are performed by agencies other than IRCC. BG check consists of security clearance performed by CSIS, and criminality performed by RCMP. Criminality is usually done quickly. Security can take time.
So I have a question and perhaps those who have already done the exam and have seen this question on there can give a far more accurate answer.
So for the question "How is the Prime Minister chosen?" I would have taught the most obvious answer would have been, "The Leader of the party with the most elected Members of Parliament becomes the next Prime Minister."But apparently, that is wrong according to this one website that states that "The Prime Minister is appointed by the Governor General."
From the book - Discover Canada
Page 29
The Sovereign is represented in Canada by the
Governor General, who is appointed by the
Sovereign on the advice of the Prime Minister,
usually for five years.
Page 31
Ordinarily, after an election, the leader of the
political party with the most seats in the House
of Commons is invited by the Governor General
to form the government. After being appointed
by the Governor General, the leader of this party
becomes the Prime Minister.
The GG appoints the PM and then the PM advises on the GG? A bit confusing if you ask me. Let me know please if anyone has seen this question on the test and gotten it right. Thank you!
There is a clear difference between the way the questions can be asked.
who appoints prime minister ? GG
How is Prime minister is chosen ? The leader of Party with more than 50 % or higher mejority.
In the actual exam there is no scope for any ambiguity hence no need to worry. CIC try to test the basic knowledge but not to trick in my experience with the exam which I passed with full score.
Added you to October sheet of global spreadsheet. Link is in my signature
Do you know when you received test invite?
@Kan_Sri updated the spreadsheet for your update.
Sounds like you will be hanging out in the Scarborough DM to Oath thread now
Congratulations!
I had this blank page in my notes even before test. But still no DM after the test on Feb 16. What do you mean by the backlog clearance?
