During the implementation phase of the new test, there will be a test monitoring period. Certain adjustments may be required to ensure that the test evaluates the knowledge and language abilities of citizenship applicants accurately.
In order to minimize the number of hearings during the transition period while the new test is being perfected, clients who fail the written test during the retesting period and who are not flagged for other issues (e.g. language, residence criminality, etc.) will be scheduled to write the test a second time before being referred for a hearing with a citizenship judge. Hearings are generally more resource intensive for the Department compared to scheduling groups for written tests. Also, wait times for hearings are generally longer than for tests.
These interim retesting measures will be in place for six months (March 15 to September 15) and are subject to change at the discretion of the Department.
A period of two months between the first and second test should elapse before retesting failed applicants. Offices should continue to ensure that test notices are sent out at least 4 weeks prior to the test event.
