Well, if you passed, that is all what matters. Actual score has no significance.

Hi, i did my test and interview, passed the test and interview . At the end of interview I was told they are still waiting for rcmp clearance and it could take 2 to 3 months. Any body went thru this ? Please share experience.
Hello FAS. Are you still waiting for your oath ceremony. Did they request fingerprints? Because I did my test yesterday and pass but the lady told me the same. Please share your thoughts. Thanks

He is waiting his oath letter .He is asking me if he needs to inform CIC that he left his job especially when he did his test the officer asked many questions about his job. I told him of course not u don't need to inform them that .

Nothing new I've heard of. As far as I know all the March applicants from Ottawa in this forum did their tests and interviews in last week. As per the latest timeline tendency derived from spreadsheets, April applicants should start receiving their invites in this week, but they are not really very active in the forum.

so far...

1. last quarter 2014 applicants have just finished their oaths/received oath invites
2. us first quarter 2015 applicants have finished tests/upcoming tests and awaiting on oath
3. pretty consistent that a few Ottawa applicants have been saying the same thing, and to us as well - oath within 2-3 months; this was September
4. so, those who applied say...April, May 2015 onwards, you can probably use the rough timelines above to gauge on when your turn will be.

My wife applied in April and Ecas has test invite for November. Application sent 1st week of April AOR last week of April. Processing started mid-July and Ecas updated this week for test in first week of November

She is a housewife (never worked in Canada). In addition to the usual documents (passport, landing document, driving license, health card, educational certificates for English), what else do the experts recommend to carry?

We have apartment lease with her name, child care tax statements, tax returns for my wife, our son’s long form birth certificate (son born in Canada). Is it a good idea to carry these documents just in case? What else do the experts recommend? Bank statements, credit card statements? Our son is 3 years old and goes to preschool and if needed, we can get letter from school too. Any suggestions/recommendations will be appreciated. Thank you.
