Congratulations and your location is Vancouver, right?

Thanks! That is correct, Vancouver.

Read and go over Discover Canada 3-4 times. Do take the online samples tests but don't depend on them. I used Richmond Public Library | Citizenship Practice Test (yourlibrary.ca) and Citizenship Test : Toronto Public Library

@mandhaata: I concur with mannu635; I used those resources as well, which helped a lot, but thank goodness I reviewed the Discover Canada material in its entirety because there were questions that showed up on the actual test that I had not seen in any of the practice tests.

Does an interview typically occur after the test? If so, would you know the average time it takes? If not, would you know the typical time it takes from the test completion to the decision made status?

Thank you

Quick update: I received the certificate one week after the oath ceremony instead of "4 to 6 weeks" that they told me.

This a good news. However I am reading conflicting information about certificate of citizenship timeline after oath here

If you are with Scarborough office most probably yes

Scarborough's standard procedure lol. I've barely seen any other offices invited people for interviews, I mean there are, just much less than Scarborough.
