Hey guys, those who have taken the test, what do you mean it's easy? I'm a mess when it comes to dates. I've read the guide a few times and I've been doing some online tests...Depending on the practice test I take, I either get a very good score (18-20) or I fail! I want to get the test out of the way, but this is killing me because I don't know if I'll ever feel ready to take it.
August 2023 - Citizenship Applications
- Thread starter forw.jane
- Start date
Usually the first GU is an indication that processing of your application has started. I never got an update for background completed which was a week later.
I'm really bad with dates too, but there's not that many important dates to memorize I think.
- When did settlers from France first establish communities on the St. Lawrence River: Early 1600s
- When did the United Empire Loyalists come to Canada?: During and after the American Revolution, late 1700 (1776-1783).
- Which Act granted, for the first time in Canada, legislative assemblies elected by the people: The Constitutional Act of 1791.
- Significance of War of 1812 for Canada: Canada kept its independence from the United States.
- When was the Canadian Pacific Railway finished? Late 1800
- British North America Act come into effect in 1867. It made Confederation legal, so Canada became a country in 1867 too.
- Constitution Act of 1982 allowed modification of the Constitution without the approval from the British Government, so they added Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to Constitution in 1982.
- What happened to Quebecois in 2006: The House of Commons recognized in 2006 that the Quebecois form a nation within a united Canada.
I studied to the test by solving these practice questions and wrote the ones that I don't know or got wrong to a word document, then eliminated them as I memorized them. After going over the test and the word document a few times, I eliminated most of the stuff from the word document and read everything before going to test again and took it.

I used this. https://citizenshipapp.ca/
Did around 15 practice tests. Actual questions are quite similar. If you are passing on these practice tests, you will be fine for the actual one.
