I got my citizenship certificate Friday, exactly 2 weeks. Now my question is: If I submit the passport application now, how long roughly does it take to get the passport???

congrats! Still awaiting mine. Did it come via canada post? was it couriered?
 
it's been 1 month and 6 days for me and I have not received my certificate from Ottawa office yet. I called them every day this week and every time the response that it is in queue for printing. So it wildly depends on your processing office

Received the certificate?
 
I have the same question. I had my test on January 8th and my ECAS is still in process. :(
Hi @geriko12, have you received oath invitation?? I just saw in July 2019 Applicants sheet someone named 'Subsidy12' from Winnipeg received invitation on Sep 28 for virtual oath on Oct 6; his/her test date is Jan 4, 2020 so I'm wondering you also might have received your invitation by now. Please update, thanks.

They received my passport app September 17 by mail, and they charged my credit card today... so I’m still waiting
 
Hi guys,

I received the oath invitation letter by email on Sept 29. The online Oath ceremony was on Oct 9.

Please kindly update the spreadsheet.

Good luck to all!

Thanks,

No, I didn’t receive anything.
I also submitted a web form inquiry 10 days ago, no answer yet.
 
Received the certificate?
No... today is exactly 7 weeks since my ceremony and agents in the call center still say that it is in queue for printing. I am starting to believe that every time I call them, they put my file to the bottom of the pile. A friend of mine also from Ottawa had her virtual ceremony three weeks ago and she received her certificate last week, so it's not like they are not working there.

I am really frustrated, am I setting a record on this forum for how long I am not receiving my citizenship certificate after the ceremony?... is anyone in the similar situation to make me feel a little bit better?

They used to handover certificates same day for in-person ceremony. I don't know why it takes more than 2 weeks even in current situation.
 
Hi Guys,

I'm a July 2019 applicant. I passed my test FEB 7th 2020 and my Oath day was SEP 25th. I'm waiting to get my certificate delivered for 20 days now. I called IRCC and i was told that my certificate was sent October 1st and is it normal for shipping time to be so long? Did any one had the same scenario?

Thanks in Advance
