Yes, he got his oath letter today so it goes into the 'Oath Letter Date' column, and his oath date of 16 Sept goes into the 'Oath Ceremony' column.
He hasn't updated if he sees it in the tracker already, if so the decision made date would be Aug 30. If he still doesn't see it in the tracker, it is due to tracker delays, but he will see it in 2 days if it was updated today. I've updated the date in column R with todays date (which he will eventually see in the tracker in that case)
Hi @hssrp
Hi @hssrp I have 2 questions if you don't mind:
1. I won't be able to attend this one because I am travelling out of Canada end of the week and don't want to go though hassle of new passport because I need PR to travel. Should I just email them with proof of travel. They won't cancel the application, right?
2. I am scheduled for on-site but I had selected virtual. Do you know anyone who was able to change this preference.
Thanks in advance.
Just received the oath letter for the 16th Sep sometime back. Checked the tracker and it shows LPP completed 30th, updated yesterday.

Do you know when the tracker updated with oath scheduled? I put date as Aug 30 for now. If it's not updated yet I'll change to today's date.
Thank you. Tracker isn't updated, the last update is about LPP dated 30th Aug.
AOR June 14 Test updated to completed on Aug 13. Since then, no update was told by IRCC: security screening has been completed on July 30th and RCMP criminality check is in progress. My office is Calgary. Is this normal? It seems like Calgary office is the worst, as I came across quite a few people having the same exact timeline for Calgary office and in the same stage as me. Is it worth sending a webform? Not sure if it makes any difference then calling. I heard webform goes directly to the case officer; is that true?
I have two questions:
- My test invite was from the Surrey Office - does that mean they would be the ones processing the file throughout or will offices/officers bounce off files to another one after each step depending on the workload and volume?
- How fast is the Surrey office in terms of processing? I don't know what offices each case file belong to from the Spreadsheets, so, I was not sure if anyone is keeping track of an estimated timeline based on each office?
Yes, its the same 2 business days delay for test completed as well. and shows up once a day around 5-5:30 AM EST like other tracker updates.
1. You can respond to the Oath invite email asking for a reschedule with your travel dates mentioned and the date you come back to Canada. They usually accept it for genuine travel cases and reschedule it once and that would be the FINAL NOTICE TO APPEAR. You have to attend the new one else the application will be considered abandoned. If the travel is not urgent and can be rescheduled, I would advice you to not reschedule the Oath. Few applicants were lucky and got a new date within few weeks of coming back and few others are waiting for months to be rescheduled though they are back to Canada already.
2. We do not select the Oath ceremony type in the application. The only preference we give is the type of the certificate (Paper or e-certificate) and they decide the ceremony type based on what is available to schedule at the earliest. Like I answered above, you can request to reschedule to the other ceremony type but it is their discretion to accept and can take a longer wait until your oath ceremony is rescheduled. It is preferable to avoid this request unless there is a pressing need for a specific ceremony type.
Thank you very much.
I may have the same issue here. I would like to travel before the Oath.
And I don't understand that, is that mean once we attended Oath, we are an citizen? As I have already booked my trip in middle of October. I can't cancel my trip. And I prefer out of country as a PR. Therefore, if I got invitation in October, I need to reschedule it.
