Citizenship - Interview ( Living abroad)

[canadalove1]

I will have the interview next week (I should fly to Canada). After I received the invitation email for the interview, I saw two ghost updates on the tracker within three days. Any reason?
However, only the citizenship test was marked as completed four months ago (not even the background check). Should I expect anything?

has anyone attended citizenship interview on MS team from **outside Canada**?

Thank you for the response.

I can confirm that I do have a valid PR card and valid PR status.

During the interview , I will ofcourse tell them that I am now living/working abroad. My concern is that by saying this - will it be a red-flag/straight denial?
If this is the case , I might as well not travel half way across the world.(not to mention the sky rocketing flight prices/accommodation and seeking work days off).

But if I do have a chance , I would like to proceed and take the citizenship , given how far I've come in the process.

Also , during the interview - can I request them for a quick oath ceremony (possibly the following day/week) ? Has anyone had the oath ceremony next day of the citizenship interview?


Thanks

Just gonna jump in and say that as a PR you need to maintain your residency obligations regardless of any citizenship application. Within a 5 year period, you need to be in Canada 3 years. If you applied in 2020 and left in 2021, 4 years later, how are you not out of residency compliance?

You're right regarding the PR residency obligation, but OP asked his questions one year after leaving the country, probably long before the residency question would become a issue, and became a citizen since then.
