I am a little upset why there is no Line 4 in my eCAS so far, even after i finished my test already.
Did you see some notes written in red ink by the CO in your original application forms when you sign during the interview? I dont knwo what these comments are..
FIngers crossed to see my DM in eCAS ASAP.
I didn't had time to see what he wrote :3
Ari, when you do your test and interview tomorrow. During the interview they will ask you to sign a white paper, can you go and read it, see what you're signing and what they wrote? I think it should be fine it you take your time reading what you're signing since you're signing it, that means you need to know the content. They will 'tell' you what it is but still better to see. The interviewer told me it's about clearance but that's what the Green paper we signed is all about right?? Munchen, did your interviewer tell you what's the white paper all about? Ari, CHECK what's written on the White paper please Good luck tomorrow!! ^_^

Hi,
My wife completed her test today 20/20 (Scarborough on Oct 21-2015 10.15 AM slot). There were basic questions in the interview and two forms to sign
1. white form an affidavit to self attest that the documents and information provided are true.
2. Green document asking if there any limitations not allowing to be eligible for citizenship like have you been convicted, imprisoned or illegal terrorist association
but at the end the officer has told her that Oath will take 4 months. Even though she requested for anything earlier the officer was curt that is the earliest and cannot be earlier than that.
I know that they do not give immediate Oath invite like they used to but 4 months seems excessively slow. Did anyone experience the same?

Thanks god passed today the test, 20/20 was easy. The Interview took exactly 1 minute.
Officer asked for the COPR I told her I lost it. Showed the application to get a new copy.
Officer told me to wait between 2-4 months for oath.
Oren, in the white paper you sign permission to check and verify all the info you submitted.

Hello guys,
I just got home from my test interview. Everything went fine. I will describe the experience here in case it can help someone else.
I arrives one hour earlier (downtown Montreal). Waited until the time of my test (9:15am) and a person invited us to form a line with the test invitation letter in hands.
We got into a classroom. We were about 60 people. We listened to the test instructions.
I asked if there would be any changes because of the recent elections and they answered that this current information will not be asked in the test.
When I see the questions I realized I was WAY overly prepared. I really studied a lot and made several quizzes. I finished the test in 10 minutes because I re-checked my answers twice. I am a man who panics a lot. And when I panic, I make stupid mistakes. So I took my sweet time to make sure I made no mistakes.
After that I moved to a different room.
It was a big room with many chairs. Everybody who finishes the test went to that room. In front of that room there were 4 big desks, each with a CO. They would call names and people would go for their interview. Nothing private. Everything very open and clear.
Some people to 1 or 2 minutes. Some people took 10 or 15. I guess it depends on how complicated is your case.
When the CO called me, he asked only for these documents: my Ids, my PR card, my passports and my landing confirmation.
He was very nice all the time. He informed me that I scored 20/20 in the test and congratulated me. He checked my Ids, told me to hold to the landing confirmation for the rest of my life being a Canadian or not and moved to very simples questions. What’s your date of birth? What’s your address? What’s your job? Very politely all the time.
I have two missing stamps on my passport. Never asked. I have a 10 month period unemployed. Never asked.
After I finished he said I should wait between 2 to 4 month for the convocation for the oath. I directly asked if I had passed the interview and he said: “Yes, of course. Yours is a very simple case”.
I thanked him, wished the best and left.
And that’s it. Now we play the waiting game... again.
Thank you guys very much, especially MirianT for calming me down about my missing stamps on my passport.

I also did the test/interview in Montreal yesterday.Quick Q: in your interview, how many forms did you sign? I only signed a form (printed on a white paper) and did not sign any GREEN forms. But Oren and some other guys here they signed BOTH the white one and the GREEN one...not sure what is that..
