July 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

[Nasser558]

Hi All,

This is my timeline below:
Test invite: 08 Mar, 2022
Test window: 11 Mar - 31 Mar 2022
Test Date: 24 Mar 2022
Test Passed!

I've called IRCC to follow up since I didn't receive any updates after passing the test. The agent over the phone went through the application and informed me that the test showed as "Not accepted" even though I passed the test.

There were no comments/info in the file to provide more details, but the agent mentioned I should receive an email with the reason and to retake the test.

After everything went smoothly during the test, I didn't understand what could be the cause of not getting accepted. Has anyone had this experience?

I was wondering if there are any updates on paper based applications. I had applied for my citizenship last year. Application was filed on July 16th, 2021 and background verification was completed on November 30th, 2021. There is no update after that and application is showing as in progress. My colleague who applied for his family of 4 in January this year has even received a test invitation.

I'm also a paper application (3 ppl) and your dates are very close to mine. Last week I saw test window scheduled for me (May 19th - June 9th), the test invitation email is still pending.

Dont worry, at the end everyone is going to have the same average sort of time.
See my timeline, I did my test at January end and no update since then.
You might get a test invite and everything can go pretty fast from there.

Thanks a lot for the update. It seems family applications are moving faster than individual applications. All the best !

The difference you can make is by making ATIP requests and exposing the IRCC's lies.

What's the next step after the test? Interview?

First test was on march 28, got 19/20 but test was invalidated because of technical error

I would suggest you to send the passport copy to the email address from where you received the Test Invitation and in parallel do the same via the webfrom

Hi friends,

So my spouse got a Notice to Appear/ Notice of Meeting today. She wrote the test January 17 and scored 16/20. Surprisingly, the test was not updated as passed as at yesterday. We contacted them, IRCC said they are aware. She is asked to come with PR card, 2 photo ID, all original documents as per Citizenship application checklist. My question is whether this is a normal requirements for re-taking knowledge test or also for another purpose in the process? Thanks !
