No offense, Frisk, but when I saw my oath ceremony wasn't scheduled yet, I was thinking I really hope I avoid your situation....

2 months is a long time to be left waiting after LPP is done. And even then, it doesn't mean it's necessarily happening soon, it could be another month or more from when they schedule it.

So it sucks, but hang in there. Are you in Toronto?
Fair enough! I don't wish this uncertainty to anyone. But don't feel for me, feel for the 2022 and May- July applicants that have been sitting with LPP completed for a lot longer than me and no updates in sight.

Yeah that sucks, but I always remember the people who have it worse. My friend waited 3 years before his application got approved and he got his oath ceremony, he was one of the last batch of paper applicants. Sometimes people get stuck in the system.

I think they are aggregating people for oath ceremonies, it might be by location.

How long does it take to receive an email for the oath and e-certificate instructions after the oath has been scheduled on tracker?

I think it varies, so it's hard to say. You should get the email for the oath ceremony at least a week before you're scheduled to take it.

Got my oath scheduled as well, Feb 14.

Yes but your child should also receive ceremony email. If they don't receive it and you do receive it call IRCC and check if oath is scheduled for them too. Many kids gets skipped for no reason and there oath gets delayed because parents assume it's oath for kids too.
