Thank you so much for your reply,I just saw that those who took the exam outside canada experience a delay in their application,I’m thinking about going back to canada for a month,and one more question,how long does it normally take to get an interview after test completion?

This is not a good idea, anyone can tell from your IP. Irrespective of that, physical presence check comes right after test and they notice these things on the travel history.
There already went through a series of citizenship fraud cases in the 2010s and they're not going to take these things lightly.
Just follow the instructions on the invite. Stupid stuff like this will make sure your application will be categorized as misrepresentation and you'll be either thrown out, never to come back again and have to wait 5 or 10 years before you can reapply for citizenship.

Also note that if you take the test in Canada, you are less likely to get an interview. On the other hand, a lot of people who take the test outside get interviewed later on.
