Just wondering if taking the test outside of Canada would slow down my file as I think the UP request have been accepted? Or there will be no effect on the speed it goes even though it's UP?

Hey guys,

I got my test invite.

I am scheduled for citizenship test between October 31, 2022 - November 21, 2022.

I am currently outside Canada. Kindly advise what should i do next? Should i tell them that i am outside Canada and will be taking the test from outside Canada? If yes, who should i get in touch with? Should I contact them via call or via web form?

Your comments are highly appreciated.

You have to be in Canada per instructions. You need to contact them ASAP

"If you get your invitation and plan to take the test while you’re outside Canada, send an email to the address in the Eligibilitysection of your invitation.

In your email

  • put “Outside Canada – Citizenship Test” in the subject line
  • in the body of your message, include
    • your full name
    • your application number
    • the start and end date for your test
We’ll contact you with your next steps after we receive your email."

Just follow the instructions on the test invite. It says what to do.

You'll need to email them with the proper subject line.

While emailing tell them about your return plans too so your file is processed continously. Sometimes some officers put files on hold if you're taking test from outside.

They'll add your email to your file and ask you to take the test from outside.

Hello guys,

I am currently preparing for the test, my test window is Oct 31, 2022 - Nov 21, 2022.

I have already practiced from the following:

Richmond Library (scored 152 / 152).
Toronto Library (scored 61 / 61).
Apna Toronto (scored an 80% average for all tests)

I would like to request advise from the guys who took and passed the test already, is there anything else I should do? Also, based on my preparation, do you think I will pass?

Any input is highly appreciated.

Hello fellows,
I requested for an UP two weeks+ ago n got below note today in email. Does that mean my UP request is approved?


“We verified the information you provided regarding your request for urgent processing and have forwarded it to the responsible office.

They will contact you if further information is required or if a decision is made on your application.”

Appreciate some guidance. UP was thru web form and reason was a Job Opp.

tx in advance

I think this is a standard response.

Typically they don't send a confirmation. If it's accepted you'll know when things start really moving fast.

Hey fellows,

I finally passed my test. (20/20)

I would like to thank everyone who provided their feedback which really boosted my confidence.

Can anyone please advise on how long do I have to wait for everything else to be completed and citizenship oath after the test is marked completed?

I would highly appreciate your feedback on this so that I can make my travel plans back to Canada accordingly.

Thank you.

I got reply to my urgent case inquiry as following -

Good day My Name,

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We are pleased to confirm the reception of the following documents:

  • Documents for urgent processing_Prachi.pdf
We have forwarded them to the responsible office for their consideration.

If further information is needed during the processing of your application, the responsible office may contact you.

Citizenship - Urgent cases

We can process applications for citizenship urgently in some cases.

If you feel that your situation may be considered urgent, we invite you to choose the type of application you would like to have processed urgently and follow the applicable instructions:

An officer will evaluate your request and determine if the application can be processed on an urgent basis.


Does that mean it was accepted ? or It just says - they forwarded it and concerned office might accept it ? Got this reply on October 24th, no movement on tracker or anything since then

Thank you help !
