November 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[wolfpack27616]

This question is to folks who appeared for their citizenship test in Sacrborough ?
Is Parking available there ? Is it a free parking or paid one ?

Check @qorax 's post about his citizenship test experience. He gave an awesome suggestion to park in the Cineplex parking lot behind the test centre (which has lots of free parking).
I took his advise and did that. When I walked towards the test centre- I found the test centre's paid parking lot already full with people circling around hunting for parking spots.

See post above, whatever option you choose, plan to be there early not to arrive just on time. Plan for traffic, parking and other potential challenges - the reason I mention this is because the test was so busy that latecomers were not admitted - which is a shame, to wait all this time and then not take simple precautions. Don't be that person for your own sake.

last thing, I decided not to drive and take the subway, it is right there!
I do not know if this is an option for you, but it allowed me to focus on being relaxed and focused on the test.

There was paid parking but arrive well before time to find a slot.

I took the test today in the afternoon at the Scarborough location and passed well. There was a mix up with the test results and after checking again, they corrected it.
However, I have been asked to provide translation for an entry/ exit stamp on my passport.

Good luck my friends.

2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on January 20, 2018.
3. We started processing your application on February 15, 2018

and literally there is no update after 15-Feb

Just want to know if this is case for most of us or processing time taking so long just for me.
