Subject: Citizenship test
  I am canadian PR and recently had citizenship test, unfortunately i could not pass the exam (shocked). Just received a letter that I have to appear in the hearing at mississauga office, Waltine Ave. I was wondering if someone had an experience to know the detail such as number of questions, time for how long the interview usually is, and the passing ratio, or any other surprises. I would appriciate any of your help. even the name of the judge would be helpful. It would give me idea to prepare accordingly.

I was asked to bring 2 IDs and traveling document with PR card.

I have heard that they ask very simple questions - sometimes you feel that why are they asking such stupid questions. If you can speak English, you should be through.

BTW, failing in the exam was really shocking ???

Just curious, the sample citizenship questions on the CIC website looked quite difficult. Was the test hard or did you just not study? Is the citizenship test multiple choice?

Citizenship interview (in reply to: Citizenship test)
Just had hearing with citizenship judge...
it was about for 10 minutes.
and i was asked for about 10 standard question regarding canada and my backgroud.
I noticed judge has used some codes on my file while in interview. Codes were either "A" or "B"
just curious if someone know what it means. I am still not sure if I passed the interview or not. However, he asked me to sign the document.
thanks in advance
