That's it! Tracker updated. Certificates in hand. Thank you all for your support and I wish you all the best with your applications and future in Canada!

We did, it's just to see it all say "completed" I guess. Want that satisfaction.

So... We did our online ceremony on the 25th but my tracker is still showing in progress... How long am I waiting for this?

Mine was the same for a few weeks. Just wait :)

We had the ceremony this morning. We emailed the Calgary office immediately after with our signed oath. Not recieved a response. The clerk said to wait ~5 days to be sent the certificate.

We just sent out signed letter but nothing received back. Going to check on the tracker in a couple of days and see. We have proof we sent it, so that's enough! :)

We just did our Ceremony!! Thank you all for your help and support! Wishing you all a smooth and happy journey!!

I believe dressing smartly and with respect to being in a court is sufficient, so no jeans etc. If you have a suit, wear it. You are becoming a citizen - there aren't too many occasions to wear formal wear these days, but in person citizenship ceremony is one.

Honestly though if it's less stress just email them asap and ask to reschedule :)

They do next day passports on Saturdays. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-passports/urgent-emergency-passport.html So oath on 6th. Ready to get a passport on 8th. Process on the Saturday, pick up on the 10th.

Yes, I got ecert instructions a day after oath letter.

You really can get a passport in 5 days with minimal stress, especially as you have time right now to arrange it so you just walk in and get it.

Stay on and request the callback option.

Email them now and ask about it. They may deny the request to reschedule if you get a grumpy clerk, just bare that in mind.
