hey guys, hope everyone is doing well. I am reading the instruction letter for the citizenship test and it states: To take the online test you will need:  A photo identification (ID)with your signature on it, such as o your permanent resident (PR) card (even if it’s expired) or o a valid government issued photo ID.
This is a contradiction because my PR card doesn't have any signature on it. Should I use my drivers license to be on the safe side?
Can anyone that has done the test share their experience with this please!
Thank you
I used driver’s license just last week. It was totally fine too.

Hey folks, my ecas file shows 'Decision Made' and everything is complete. What are the next steps? Is an interview scheduled at this point? Thank you!

Congrats buddy. No Interview now. Everything is done ✅ just hang in tight & wait for Oath invite. D.M. is the last step & every thing has been updated to complete as you said. Oath Invite generally takes between 1 to 3 Months & After your Citizenship Ceremony is done ☑️ it takes about a week or 10 days to get your Citizenship Certificate in the Mail.
 
Hi guys,
I took the test today. When I finished it gave me the temporary result 18/20. I clicked Exit and the window closed.
I haven't receive any email or any notification to confirm that I passed yet. In the application status, it is still "In progress"
Is it normal? How long should it take to become "Completed"?

Don’t worry wait for a few days/weeks and it will update for you on the tracker.

After you finish the test, the last page there gives you an option to send yourself an email that emails you the score. It cannot be done after you exit the test.

Today is second week after I took the exam and still waiting for this to change to "Complete".
I wonder if it gets delayed due to getting close to end of year and basically no one really wants to work until new year?

Thank you so much! This is very reassuring. It's been a long wait and I am eager to get over this last hurdle. Cheers!

BTW, did you receive any email when it changed to "Complete"? Or you just randomly checked your status?

No communication, you have to login and check your tracker. My friend did it on 19th December and status updated to complete today evening. ( Of course I was checking every 30 minutes for update because his preferred language was French and I forced him to do in English, this raised tensions between our 4 years friendship :) ).

You can check every day once or alternative days, depends on how curious you are. It takes less than 10 seconds to open and close. So I check very often.

I just got an update 5 month after completing the test and all steps got completed and the ceremony is still not started. Does this mean they've made their decision? Or should it somewhere on the status website say "decision-made" or something like that?

Congratulations. You should be able to see “Decision Made” in the old tracker. Here’s the link https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/introduction.do?app=ecas
