Citizenship Certificate After Oath

[PetraAlta]

Last I heard from IRCC, they sent the certificate on Jan 12th .... It is Jan 25th and I am still waiting.

Is there anything I can do? Is this normal?

Its pretty normal…you should get it soon. Some have been waiting way longer than you. If its more than 6 weeks and you haven’t received it you can contact them again.

Checked my mailbox in evening and voila, it was there. Regular Canada post.

But 6 weeks is insane!! My oath was 9n dec 20 ... the certificate was sent 4 weeks later ... and now I am asked to wait for another 6 weeks! Thats insane I am losing my mind!

I received my certificate 2 month ago, around 17 days after my status was completed on ECAS. However, my status still in progress on the new tracker .

What I saw in the forum is they dispatch the certificate mostly on when the tracker is marked complete and will take couple of days to few weeks to reach the address

It will take about 2-3 weeks (from the date application is marked closed), if you did not request for your certificate to be expedited.
In our case I requested for certificates to be expedited cpl of days before the ceremony (but it was rejected) but during the Oath ceremony the clerk acknowledge the expedite request and said that she will send the certificate by post the next day provided we send the signed Oath forms(by email) as soon as the ceremony is finished.
Oath: Sep 13
File Closed: Sep 14 (Tracker updated on Sep 15)
Certificate received by standard Canada Post mail: Sep 16

If you don't mind, when you asked for certificate to be expedited, did you provide any proof for travel or just stated that you need to travel? Thanks.
