Hello,

I am living in Fort McMurray-Alberta. I applied for Canadian Citizenship in August 2008(almost 10 months before). I got the acknowledgement letter and the Citizenship test preparation booklet from Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

Can anyone answer that how many times a year the citizenship test is conducted in Fort McMurray and in what months of the year. Any idea when I can get the letter to appear for Citizenship test. Looking forwrad your reply. Thanks

Find the CIC office in Fort McMurray and ask them.  If you can't find one, ask Service Canada.  I did my citizenship in Edmonton and it varies how long it takes to process your file.  For some reason, mine took like 2.5 years.  Everybody I met at the citizenship ceremony had done it in around a year.  When they let you know to appear for the test, you will probably have around 2 weeks notice.  Same with the oath ceremony.  There is a practice test at http://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship/  Pick all questions and go through them until you know them all.  The most important are citizen rights and responsibilities and the voting system.

Thanks Leon for your reply. I do not think there is any functional CIC office in Fort McMurray. That is why for Fort McMurray residents the Citizenship test is arranged couple of times every year. But I will try to find again. I will alos call Service Canada in working hours.

The closest CIC is Edmonton.  They do itinerant service to other cities in Northern Alberta for testing and ceremonies.
