Finally its all complete.
Had oath today at 11 but was allowed in the meeting after 15 minutes of wait. It kind of freaked us.
But after we got in, the documents were verified. After that we were moved in another room with 26 other families and the judge.
Judge explained us our rights and responsibilities followed by the oath in both the languages.
Then we were sent back to our officer who made us sign the oath form and cut our PR cards into 4 pieces.
And then its complete.
Then it will wait for the citizenship certificate followed by the Passport application (whenever they open Service Canada)
From which office your application got processed and what is ur timeline.

My journey is officially over. I took my oath today at 11 am in Calgary. The whole ceremony took 15 minutes (make sure to have a pair of scissors handy to cut your PR card). Good luck everyone. It will be said and done very soon.

I don't remember the dates exactly but everything is on the spreadsheet.
Congrats. Looks like YYC is moving quickly. Trying to figure out the timeline of everything though. You had received an oath invite before everything shut down and took your test the day after I did...I hadn't received anything yet. I guess I will just keep my phone on me and email open and hope for the best. I hate being in limbo.

Congrats!
Do you mean 7.30 am is your virtual session time? If that's the case then good to know and it looks like they are covering up for the lost time between March and July by doing overtime.
Respect!!

Yes 7:30 AM is my Oath Ceremony scheduled. Thanks. They are trying to cover up long backlog for sure and virtual ceremony definitely makes it faster.
