It has been more than one month after oath and still no certificate yet. My oath was on Nov 9th, anyone else took oath on or around date and received their certificate from Niagara office?
They told me that th
Did they tell you at the ceremony when you can expect the certificate?

On our Dec 6 ceremony we were explicitly told that the certificates reach 4 to 6 weeks after the ceremony but in our case it would be even later than that because of the upcoming holiday season.

Good luck! I'm sure your certificate will reach you soon!
They told us 3-5 weeks, but also mentioned its longer only for applicants who are not around the Niagara area (like Alberta or ottawa etc). Quicker for Toronto applicants. But who knows?

I applied online in Feb 2022 and received AOR in March 2022. Since then, absolutely nothing. Is this normal for NF office? Is there anything I can do beyond requesting GCMS notes or contacting MP?

Mine was as below, so 1 month after I posted our application by mail, I received Application filed info.
2 months after that updates started showing up on my tracker.
No update until now seems a bit too long, maybe try calling them.
