CIC can and does RQ at or after the test. Increasingly RQs are being issued prior to the test. At test RQs are usually due to discrepancy on declared absences. Its better to get a Pre-Test RQ. The wait after an at test or post test RQ depends on the reason for the RQ and if the case goes to a Citizenship Judge...give it at around 12 mths for non judge and 24 mths for judge.

Why do you think you will get RQ? Did you travel during the 4 year period?

Me, mother, and my brother applied in May 2012 (Separate applications) and we had the exact same number of traveling days (To Germany), and we came to Canada all same day. They both got their Citizenship. While I got RQ. So I don't think it's about travel. By the way, I sent back my RQ response to Mississauga office. Let's see :(

This explains how the ‘Randomness theorem’ has been widely adopted in CIC.

That is a cute way to look at things at CIC :)... The method of handling applications has nothing to do with general common sense. It is kind of a secret process where only top officials knows about it :)
its like Lotto :)

There was a flag on your profile or its for programme integrity/ quality assurance where CIC randomly pick an application and thoroughly review it. Is your 'in Canada' profile same as your mother/ brother - you all employed full time, file your taxes, live at the same address etc? You would need to see the 3 applications to identify the RQ flag.
