Receipt of Application: July 31st 2019
Acknowledgement of receipt: Oct 18th 2019
Start Processing: Nov 18th 2019
Notice to Take Test: Nov 30th 2019
Took Test : Dec 20th 2019

I received a call from a "No Caller ID" private number on July 10th 2020 asking if my schedule was suitable on July 21st to take a virtual ceremony and the agent asked a couple of information like previous phone numbers , address etc. Since IRCC always contacted me through e-mail I wasn't sure if this was an actual call from IRCC or was a scam but I confirmed that I can attend the ceremony.

Yesterday I received an e-mail subjected: "Notice to Appear: To take the Oath of Citizenship – by video" which included instruction for the oath on 21st July. It seems fine but unlike all the other e-mails I have received from IRCC , this e-mail is from an address name.surname@cic.gc.ca

I logged on to cic.gc.ca and check my application status ; the last update is decision made and that I took the Citizenship Test on Dec 20th 2019. Shouldn't it be updated to show that Oat is scheduled for July 21st ?

I find this confusing , can someone who already attended a virtual ceremony confirm if their process was like the above ?

Hi,
Congrats for the virtual ceremony invite. This is normal.

I am scheduled for the oath on 30th July and my ecas still shows the status as decision made with the last update about the test taken in March.

All the best for the oath ceremony!

Take care.

I had my virtual oath on July 3, and my ECAS wasn't updated until 5 days after it was done - with the date of me becoming a citizen. It didn't even show when the second, virtual oath was scheduled. Don't worry, it'll update to Complete once the oath is done. Good luck!
