    February 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

    The interview was 5 to 10 mins. It'll depend on each person's circumstances. To name a couple examples, whether you traveled outside of the country a lot or not or whether you have gaps in your work timeline or not. If you have gaps in your application timeline they might ask you to clarify...

    I did the test this morning. Test was easy. It took me 10 mins/max to finish it. Got 20/20. I prepared last night, using the practice test in this website! There are over a 100 qs in that practice test and I can guarantee you the real test will come from those qs. Now another kind of waiting...

    It's fingerprints. I got exactly the same line on March 3rd, and it turned out to be fingerprints. But don't worry, that might not affect your test date, as they sometimes request fingerprints and schedule citizenship tests almost simultaneously, like in my case.

    Yup, it was fingerprints. Took them at Commissionaires on Friday, and was sent to the RCMP on the same day. Looks like my application became non-routine and might take a little longer. Good luck everyone.

    Desi-girl, you need to call them sister, or have your husband call them if he's the sponsor. They don't always send emails. I called them and I found out they approved my application last week. They sent the letter on Friday.
