August 2018 Application

[Owais Iqbal]

It notes in the body of the Email received not the test invite letter a specific GIC email to contact if you have any issues with the date, time or location of the test/interview. I dont think this would be a big deal at all.

A question for you guys, assume they dont take your PR card until the oath ceremony is complete as I am due to travel 2 days after my test/interview?

Thanks,

I don't think they take away your PR card even after your oath. Haven't heard about it. Someone with more knowledge might shed some more light but they certainly not gonna take your PR card before the oath ceremony.

Hi,
yes, you can travel without any problem until the 'Oath' when your PR card will be taken.

Should be fine. My friend surrendered his PR card at his oath ceremony 2 weeks ago.
