July 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

I Completed my virtual ceremony, they were so friendly. After the ceremony ended, the Clark sent email Instructions for Post Ceremony Administration requesting to send the signed form and picture of PR card after cutting it. Should I just reply to the email and attach both documents?
Thanks

Congrats!
Yes reply to the email.

I was never asked to submit the picture of PR card and never received an email to send it. Just signed form. Did anyone else was asked to sent the PR card picture after it is cut.

Based on what I have read from multiple people in this forum, I have noticed that the process of destroying the PR card differs from processing office to office.
I was asked to destroy the card after the virtual oath session and was sent an email containing the instructions to destroy the card and was asked to send them the photo proof of the destroyed card as a reply to that email along with the signed oath form.
While many others have reported that they were instructed during the virtual oath session to cut the PR card and were not required to send the photo of the destroyed card after the call. Just the signed oath form was required to be emailed back.
So don't worry if you fall in the second category of cases. You are all set.
Congratulations on being a Canadian!

Congratulations!
Was your online status ‘decision made’ prior to receiving the invite?
How did the invite arrive? Did they call or email? What was the subject or sender or phone number look like so I can be extra watchful.

My ecas status changed to 'decision made' probably sometime in August, 2020. The status was 'in process' for several months even after my test in January 20, 2020. I received the invite over email.
