Called in to make sure everything ok and I did not miss anything by accident as it's been forever without a response. Was told my file showed pending test, am guessing Vancouver office is super busy or
Only a handful of November applicants from Vancouver got test invites. My guess December applicants will start getting invites in late June. Not sure about those processed in Surrey though.
Yes I agree with you...I called in to make sure everything was ok with my application, the rep told me everything looks fine and it's just pending test invite... fingers cross we see more traction this month!!

No updates here, still waiting. Considering that November applicants got their test invites last week and their IPs date to early February, I think us December Ottawa applicants are realistically looking at early July for any movement on our applications.

what do they mean by bring all your original documents that support your citizenship application (as listed in the document
checklist in the citizenship application form); so I have to prepare the dates calculated forms again? with two more photos? sounds meaningless for me, all my original files are in their hands....

Just got my test invitation today, add me in, what documents should I take? is that a very short test? thanks
Hi Steve,

Make sure you get there about 30-45 minutes early. The line gets long, quick.

Bring along original copies and all the forms you submitted with your citizenship application, your passport(s) (old and new), any visas (or other travel docs), your PR card, and another piece of photo ID (e.g. AB identification or driver's license). You don't need to bring any photos along. The test takes about 30 minutes (it's not hard if you have a good understanding of the Discover Canada book - make sure you go through it and study).

It looks like you said you were in Edmonton (on your above comment). Your test is in a room on the first floor of the Canada Place building (pink building) - just ask the security where the room is (kinda tricky to find - but it's on the first floor). After your test is over, you walk to another area down the hall to talk to an immigration officer. They have your file but they may ask to see originals (your citizenship application had photocopies).
