My test date is Jan 24, 2022 and P.O is Scarborough.
It's been 6 months after the interview. I think they're waiting for me to go back...My PR card expires on Oct 2nd so I think I'll have to go back.

I did not take the test outside Canada.
But I did travel mid of Jul for 2 weeks outside Canada.
When I returned, I did email (to the Ceremonies and Test) IRCC SCR office that I am back in Canada and I did provide them copy of the ticket and boarding pass. I did not mention in that email to now expedite etc, it was just for there info... Later that same week Physical Presence, Language, Prohibitions were marked completed. 5 days later, tracker updated with Scheduled for Oath.

You can email them saying that you returned to Canada. Include boarding passes, tickets and passport stamps. It worked for some

Do we have to be in Canada to get the Oath letter?
I suspect so. It's been 6 months after my interview. They didn't say they'd put your file on hold but I'm afraid they're doing so...
