Thank You !!!

Any data/patterns for processing timelines by Hamilton IRCC ? I don't see applications getting processed from Hamilton.
No set patterns. Some People from Oct list are getting all their steps completed before Sept applicants. So it's all a lottery based system. If you are lucky enough you may get everything processed by this week only or may be waiting like me for almost 2 months.

Hi , I started to read the book and watch youtube 400 citizenship test . Are the questions in the real test is from the 400 tests on youtube?
Read the book Discover Canada thoroughly. Don't overly rely on the any mock questions. The youtube 414 is to help you better understand the book.

Don't plan on doing the youtube only. The whole test is based on the book, not on any mock questions.

I read both the PDF and webpages of the book. I also listened to people reading it on the webpages. I find the test really easy after reading the book thoroughly.
