Hi, it will depends on how long you can wait for it. Regular processing may take a month but urgent 2 days. May I ask where was your certificated issued? I'm still waiting mine from Calgary office.

Scarborough office

Can we receive certificate electronically or only regular mail is the option?

Regular mail via Canada post or Express mail via Purolator if urgent certificate is requested. No electronic copies as of yet!

I don't think urgent certificates are always sent via Purolator. Mine was urgent request & my file closed a few days later...still no certificate.
 
How do I get an invite code to sign up for this though? It’s asking for an invite code on the sign up page.
I didn't have a code so I made a dummy application for temporary visa, they sent me a code to apply for temporary visa online, so I was able to make an account on the new portal by this way.

I am in a weird situation.
I was out of country due to family reasons when I got Oath Ceremony. I connected to Oath ceremony and explained the scenario.
The officer told, I can't take Oath at that time and asked to send a note through webform when I am back in Canada.

By the time, I am in Canada I got Citizenship Certificate. I was speechless on what to do.

As I haven't cut my PR card or properly participated in Oath Ceremony, I sent webform with my itinerary and mentioned I am in Canada and can take Oath any time.

Its been around 1.5-2 months and has been no update. not able to reach agent over phone.

Not sure what to do with the existing Citizenship Certificate I got.!!

No, I haven't had my oath yet it is scheduled for 22nd April. I am just asking on the forum if someone had applied for electronic certificate yet, because I heard somewhere that they are issuing it.

I tried but it does not work. It says “You have not opted to receive an electronic citizenship certificate”

Had they asked any question regarding electronic citizenship certificate during your oath?
