Well, unfortunately, there's nothing you can do now. You will very likely receive a notification to re-do the test, this time, orally in front of IRCC officials. IRCC officers will show you a PowerPoint presentation with the questions and you'll have to provide answers orally. This is done over MS-Teams. You'll have the same number of questions and the same time limit.

For couple of people, they asked to send your ID (not sure if it was with face in it) but no one knows what they will decide. You have to wait and see, as usual.

Hi All,

The test requires an ID with my signature on it, such as my PR card. However, my PR card doesn't have a signature on it. Looks like since 2012 signatures have been removed from the PR card.
Wonder has anyone taken online citizenship test with a PR card without signature on it?
I used my PR card for the test..

Just finished my citizentest, it was super easy and I got 20/20. The whole test only took me 5 mintues,

However, during the test, I somehow noticed that there are unclosed tabs in my browser. For whatever stupid reasons, I decided to close the tabs, which made me switch to another tab for around 3 seconds and after coming back to the test page I saw a warning box.

Not sure whether they are going to treat this as potential cheating or not.. I hope the worst case I will get is to retake the exam and they won't reject my application... should I write them an email to explain this?

If they suspect anything, the worst thing that'll likely happen is you'll get a re-test request. It isn't a problem if other tabs are open and you stay on the test page. The problem comes in when you leave the test page for any reason.

Anyway, a very short duration like that shouldn't cause issues IMO.

Good luck and keep us posted on how it goes.

Thanks, will definitely give an update after hearing from the immigration office

Bonjour,
My son failed his citizenship test (12/20). We are confused; please why the citizenship test status has been updated to Completed ?? It shouldn't said completed because he failed his test?? Or this is the regular process?? Thank you for your feedback.

May be there is no status in the system to show online as passed/failed. No idea.
You can find out from gcms notes. It will say if knowlege is passed. https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do

It will most likely go back to "In Progress" and a re-test invitation will be sent. The second time, your son has to take the test orally with IRCC officials present via MS teams. The officer will show a PowerPoint slide containing the questions and answers need to be provided orally. Same number of questions and the same time limit applies.

For next time preparation, here is the tip:
He needs to read the book couple of times more.
Take more practice tests online to memorize dates and names:

Hey guys,
I heard some people already have the invitation with ability to take the test abroad. I am wondering if you choose to do a test abroad is the process any different? for example with real officers or something...

Also during the test they don't record you all the time on camera? just for the photo and the ID ?

Thank you for your quick response. Up to date the citizenship test status remain as "completed". Please any idea how long it will take to go back to "In Progress" ?? Thanks
