On average I have always received it in 30 to 35 calendar days. Not sure why you have not received yours. I requested one more on August 17. Will update when I receive it. Try googling ATIP online request. The first link should guide you through the process of requesting it in detail.

I have a question somewhat related, but when can we go about getting a passport after all of this? Do we have to wait until the oath ceremony to apply for a passport? Is a passport included in the process since we had to send in passport photos? thanks!
Applying for passport is a separate process (you'll have to fill out a passport application form, get photos taken, get the application form, photo and ID documents signed by your guarantor). You'll have to wait until you receive the citizenship certificate after oath and only then can you apply for a passport. You'll have to submit the original citizenship certificate as a part of the process. Even if you are submitting the application in-person, you'll need the original citizenship certificate.
