Sorry to jump in with my experience to show the flip side....

I sent my application by by Canada Post Xpresspost on August 11,2020 and they received it on August 13,2020.
I never got a mail regarding the tracking number till I asked for it. 1st by phone (1-800-567-6868) and then by submitting a status check request at https://secure.cic.gc.ca/rs-vd/stat-eng.aspx


Sept 21,2020 Canadian Passport delivered to my mail box.
Sept 21,2020 Canadian citizenship certificate mailed by Canada Post Xpressport from BC. Expected delivery 1 to 3 business days!!
Sept 23,2020 Canadian citizenship certificate in transit (processed at Winnipeg)

On a side note, they opened my application packet only on Sept 11th and printed my passport on 16th. So they are lightening fast once they open the packet. But unfortunately just another example of how IRCC can be unpredictable.

Hope you get your application processed faster.

Cheers!

Very unpredictable
- I sent my application by mail on August 09,2020 by Canada Post Xpressport and they received it on August 11,2020.
- Charged my credit card on 27th,2020

- I contacted them using the link below

Congratulations, how many people were there in the ceremony along with you?
25 people total, including families with multiple applicants. So about 14-15 groups.

I Completed my virtual ceremony, they were so friendly. After the ceremony ended, the Clark sent email Instructions for Post Ceremony Administration requesting to send the signed form and picture of PR card after cutting it. Should I just reply to the email and attach both documents?
Thanks
