Hey Folks,
Hoping to get your advice on something.
My citizenship application is being processed by the Vancouver office and on Jan 23, 2023, I got my Physical presence, Prohibitions and Language Skills status updated as Complete.
Based on the replies above and the spreadsheet, I should get the Oath ceremony in 3 weeks or so- which is great! There is one hiccup-I recently got married and am going to Mexico with the wifey on Feb 19th for a week. I am getting super nervous as the oath date will likely be before that or in that week. Any advice on-
1. Should I try to reschedule the oath if it comes before or in that week?
2. Is first vacation after covid/honeymoon a silly reason to request postponing the oath ceremony?
Most of the expenses are non refundable and we are looking forward to the break for months now- any advise is hugely appreciated!

Hi, this might help as my Language/ Physical and Prohibitions were marked complete on Jan 23 as well and my timeline is quiet similar to yours. Just this morning my Oath ceremony was marked in progress, and the date is March 3! So it's safe to assume your oath will be a month or more from now if that helps. Below is my timeline:
