It is illegal to share the questions. I did, however, post what I believe one should do: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/may-2015-applicants-for-citizenship-t277082.0.html;msg4638142#msg4638142

Citizenshipcounts.ca is a great website. try, ace the test with %100 X 10 times.
And I suggest you to read the Discover Canada booklet at least once. I did not read it and there were some questions was not on the website.

Interview is not something that you need to worry, she checked my dates, asked me simple things about my work and life in Vancouver. most likely it was a everyday conversation with someone you meet first time.

Thank you very much vancouverca for advice. I'm happy hear that the interview is just a normal conversation.
I started to read the book and to take the practice test at Citizenshipcounts.ca. Also, downloaded the audio book, which is pretty useful.

I herd that the pass mark is 80%. Is that correct?

75% - you have to get 16 out of 20 right which is easy to get believe me no one gets less that 18 )

Thanks m22ij
I'm still getting around 85% for practice tests at Citizenshipcounts.ca. I should practice more, as vancouverca suggested, until get %100 X 10 times.

Yeah, also try to keep track of dates. It very important, although I will recommend reading the book twice and then proceed to do the online quiz. All the BEST.

The citizenship test is not at all difficult but you need few hours of practice.With few hours of practice I scored 20/20 but then due to few days shortage, the judge advised me to withdraw and re-apply. As he ,was lazy did not want to check the doc's.

I believe every candidate in the test hall get different set of 20 randomly selected questions.

The online questions for Citizenship test from few different site would be very helpful.

What do you mean few days shortage, u applied with less than 1095 days?

Thanks Ojeola! Yes, doing the online quiz after reading the book could be more efficient than directly taking the quiz. However, the quiz indicates key points need to be remembered while reading.

They should have informed you before inviting to the test.

Hi Everyone in this forum Good morning from where I am. My ecas was updated with this sentence this mornig. "We started processing your application on September 15, 2015.". Can someone help me by updating my sheet so it reflects the correct colour as well. I can do it myself but i am afraid i might mess up the sheet. Thanks folks.

My job required heavy domestic traveling. I hired Sol Gombeski / Ontario based attorney's professional services. Despite of providing my copies of passport, he miscalculated my physical days and submitted my application. I was penalized for his blunder.

Citizenship judge seems to be in such extreme rush, does not want to even hear me or look at tons of proof that establishes my strong ties to country (Per CIC, if one is short of few days, Judge can consider applicant's strong ties to country & grant)

Shockingly, the citizenship judge literally pleaded me to withdraw my application and re-apply. He gave me less than 5 minutes
after keeping me wait helplessly for nearly 4 years, as if we met at some busy traffic signals. ;D

Someone has yet again decided to modify my information and remove the notes that I had written about my own application, so I just deleted all my information from the tracker instead and won't share my application details there anymore, I'm tired of correcting my line over and over again. This is pretty rude and uncalled for, and it's not the first time — whoever is doing this, please stop.

Well it quite unfortunate that someone keeps messing around with the google tracker probably access restriction on the tracker might be a great idea.

Can't even remember who created the tracker to start with. I will try my best to fix it if possible.

This is absolutely outrageous. Is there any recourse? I can relate to you...
