Hi mtl007.
Good luck for the test. you said before that you are going to call the CIC to inform them that you are travelling for vacation I was wondering if they gave you an earlier test date because you called them or  they now scheduling on  a normal basis the people who applied end of december .I am asking you this because i intend to travel during the xmas break.

Thank you ab007

No, my ecas is still the same, no test information so far. I guess CIC doesn't update the E-cas on a daily basis.

Hi Alltime
I don't think I'll get oath the same day (reason it doesn't say so on the test letter), but I will be more than glad if asked to spend more hours for a citizenship ceremony.

Hi everyone
For those of you who will have citizenship test, here are some info:
- http://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship/  is a very helpful site
- It's useful to prepare the test... my test included questions like: year Nunavut became a territory, or when did the Canadian charter of freedoms and rights become part of the constitution
- For all the questions you have to circle the right answer (4 possible answers: a b c or d) and only one answer is correct (exclusive). For almost all the questions, the suggested wrong answers are obvious, which makes it straight forward to someone who prepared for the test.
- They provide different series of questions, from a row to another, so the guy on your side has a different test
- There's 20 questions, 5 questions by category (4 categories)
- The elections and voting procedures is the most important category. the 1st of the 5 questions it includes, is mandatory to answer correctly, if failed = failed test. My mandatory question was:  What do you mark on a federal election ballot (answer is X ), the other 4 questions of this category were like: who has the right to vote in federal elections... etc
- If you renewed your passport, and your origin country policy is to take back the old one, then it's better to get a photocopy of the old one from your consulate. Otherwise the citizenship officer may ask you more questions and get suspicious.

Any questions Question, feel free to ask
Good luck Wink

Alleluia CIC Montreal !

They take as much as one entire YEAR just to book us for the test.
They inform us by letter only one WEEK before the test (do they ever think that there may be a problem with Canada Posts ?) and Ecas is update only one DAY before the test.
