Test rquest june 04 2021
Test done june 22, 2021
20/20 done
Maybe if you were reading out loud they thought you were doing it so a third party could hear you and somehow indicate to you the answer? I dunno just saying. I'm sure you're fine though
but there is no mic .
They just record the video .. no 360 degree angle .
I think this should be fine. As long as they don't think you were talking to someone else, you should be fine.

My application for proof of citizenship was received in Sydney Jan 30th 2020. It was acknowledged as being received on Sept 22nd 2020. The status changed to "in process" on May 27th 2021 - 16 months after it landed in Sydney. The wesite says they'recurrently finalising December 15th to 21st 2019 applications. Fingers are well and truly crossed as my application could be a complicated one.

Edit, I'm in the UK and my application is based on my Grandfather being a Canadian Serviceman with the West Nova Soctia Regiment over here in WW2.

I've seen at least one other applicant report this. For the OP, I think the test results were invalidated because of a "technical issue". It is possible that the webcam did not open properly OR they were not able to take photographs at random times during the test OR the ID or the photo that you submit towards the beginning of your test wasn't clear or could be for other reasons as well.

Good luck with this attempt - All the best!
