 Citizenship Test Tips

What happens to your written test if you fail ..... If the applicant has failed, all citizenship knowledge tests (first tests, retests and oral) must be kept on file at the local office. Failed tests for refused applicants are retained on file, so that the actual test questions that an applicant was not able to answer can be provided as evidence if judicial review is launched.
