 Citizenship Test Tips

If you fail Canadian Citizenship Test ..... If you fail the test, you will be invited to attend an interview with a citizenship judge. In addition to personal question about you and your family, the judge may ask you questions from the "Discover Canada" book (similar to Citizenship) but his focus might be more provincial or local than national. This still means you will have to refresh you knowledge again. Some judges are more lenient than others.
