Thank you! You can see all my dates in my signature.
Just to share a hiccup happened to me
- We received passport request on Sept 9. We submitted it on Sept 10 by email (as instructed)
- To make sure IRCC get it, we couriered a hard copy of it.
- Hearing nothing from IRCC, we reached out to our MP. They found that there is no record of my passport scanned submission
- I have to re-submit both via email and web form. And surprisingly, they sent me an email to acknowledge the receipt of it.
Lesson learn:
-Keep tracking the status so that you could take action to fix it
- Do not send email in the afternoon of Friday or any day before weekend or holiday as it is likely omitted after the officers return to work.

I can relate, something similar happened to me.
- Received a passport request on Sep 14th, submitted by email on Sep 20th as instructed.
- Received another email last week stating that was the second request for passport, so this time around I re-submitted everything by email (reducing the size of the PDF files) and by web form - the latter has already been acknowledged, at least.
Been waiting forever for the ceremony... I wonder if the same thing happened to me in terms of them not seeing the passport email... I did send it on Friday the 13th =D

Hello everyone, can someone please advise how long it takes lately from interview/DM to oath invite. I had an interview few days ago and lady said that they are pushing for a lot of oaths but couldn’t give me timeline. Any insight will be appreciated. For west Canada I see Winnipeg is working on a lot of Alberta applicants.
Guys, we took the Oath on Nov 12 online! It took 1.5h for all the procedures. Everything was super smooth and flawless. A clerk asked for a name and last name, to show a piece of ID (our home country passports were used) and PR cards that were subsequently cut. We were asked if we were physically in Canada and if we had any problems with law; nothing else. Happy to join Canadian Family!

Thank you and good luck to all!
