Topic: Passed Citizenship Test - Next Steps?

Hannah_Green

Hi there,

I have applied for citizenship last Aug and provided all the required documents including my passport translations.

I received an invitation for citizenship test 3 weeks ago and I had my exam yesterday.

After I passed the exam officer told they need to look at my application closer and I might the invitation for citizenship ceremony or I might need to see the judge.

They didn’t give me any clear answer, I even contacted CIC call center today to understand how likely this is happening to people but didn’t get any good answer.

They have mentioned this is not random and it is at discretion of officer.

I have studied in Canada and hold a Master degree and I've been working for government for 2 years now.

At this point I am so disappointed because I have provided all the required documents and I don’t understand how they cannot provide me with a clear answer.

I was wondering if I need to mail supporting documents (i.e. T4, transcripts, bank statement) to their office to help them validate my application faster and maybe avoiding any backlog.

Any advice is highly appreciated,
Thanks,
