Hi

I took my citizenship test today (May 3rd,2012) at Exp Blvd. I found the test difficult :eek:, think I will have 2-3 wrong answers out of 20, hopefully not more ??? !

Please share your feed-backs on the test and keep this posting updated regarding the oath time table and more!

Cheers to every one!

I did my test back in April, in my opinion my test was not easy at all, I was well prepared, I did all the online tests many times but unfortunately none of the questions was in those online resources, I have my fingers crossed and waiting since then......
Hope you pass the test and get your letter soon, please share your timeline.

I was told by the officer that its very unlikely to get the oath letter before 2 months after the test. There will be also some security checks which delay the letter based on the country of origin and your trips out of Canada. But at least BC process is much faster than Ontario, as I understood!

I have to leave Canada in few month, so needy to get my passport ASAP.

Fingers crossed!

Hi test-takers from May 2012. Sorry to jump into your thread with something a bit off topic, but I was wondering if I could ask advice. I'll be submitting my application from Salt Spring next month (so presumably the Vancouver office now that the Victoria office is closed). I'd be open to any advice and timelines so I can do some planning. All info will be very gratefully received!

Congrats on getting that far through the process. I'm jealous and a bit fearful as this looks like a daunting process.
