INTERVIEW: Test-Event - ID/Documents Verification

Zaffu wrote: I know you are very helpful and knowledgeable in this forum, I am following this forum from 2011. My wife will have test on June 9th in Mississauga, she already failed a test and interview once, She applied again. I am wondering if you can share something which will benefit her to pass the test this time, she is preparing with DISCOVER CANADA BOOK. Is there any online questions site which will benefit her or any other way she can get prepare herself, please let me know.

There is another topic here specifically about the test and questions:
the Discover Canada - post sample Q's here topic.

Much of what is there is, of course, dated, some very much outdated. There are numerous references and links to various resources to help. I have no ideas about how good any of these are (I was test-exempt, and otherwise very familiar with Canadian history, government, politics, economics, and so on, even before I became a PR, so I rarely gave a thought about the test itself).

One of the main problems is, of course, rooted in language ability more than the content of test questions. Practice will help in both respects, as to language ability and knowledge of Canada itself.

From what I understand, for individuals with good language skills and average or better test-taking skills, reading the book and going over some sample questions should make the test fairly easy. Some people simply have trouble with tests generally, and will need to practice more.

All potential questions, and answers, should be based on what is in the current version of the Discover Canada booklet, so the information in that is the most important to learn.

GOOD LUCK!

Thanks dpenabill for your precious advise.

Hello, I'll have my test in 3 days, Pre-test RQ. With my RQ submission, I submitted old and current passport copies along with original certified translation for couple of stamps in old passport (no non-English stamp in my new passport as of today). Do you think I should translate those stamps again and have it for the test day? I've read reports here that in most cases the officer has the RQ file. Thanks. 

Just took my test & interview today. Test easy got 20/20. Interview was very short, the officer was very nice and just asked what I do and where I went to school. The whole thing may took 3-4 mins. She just went through passports very fast and compared the first pages with the copies submitted with RQ (she had my RQ) and copied my renewed PR and driver license, no stamp check, no questions on travel or anything else. At the end, she said I'm good and my file will be forwarded to Judge for approval. Should expect the oath by 3 months. That's it.
