Just was on the phone with an agent, he suggested not to jump to get ATIP as it usualy leads to a longer wait time since thr agent who provide and sends the notes is same person who works on the application. I think it could also brings up the application to the agent's attention. I dont know it may help your case, or the opposite. any insights?
why do they mean ordering will lead to longer wait?

They just fool us by giving such info. It's separate team. If agent starts processing ATIP request no work would be done. There are people in forum who have applied for notes every month without any issues.

Phoned IRCC, basically no real update for scheduling my oath as I am still within the 19 months timeline. A bit frustrating since we've been sitting in that queue for oath since November 2nd.

I was thinking to phone IRCC too, but I wasn’t sure they could help. Been waiting since November 29th for my Oath date.

The citizenship journey comes to an end for me. I had a zoom virtual ceremony today. Lasted about 1.5 hours.

I asked the clerk if I could get my citizenship certificate sooner than the official processing time of upto 5 days. She asked me to submit oath form after the ceremony is over. Overall all officials were very nice and welcoming. Being declared a citizen was an emotional moment for me.

I checked for my wife's e-certificate 2 hours after the ceremony and it was available. I had issues logging into IRCC portal with my usual email ID ( they had to add a surprise at the end ).

I registered an account with IRCC portal from a different email ID and was able to download my certificate as well.

Best of luck to those waiting. It is going to happen soon.

I got my test letter and the same afternoon got the ATIP notes. It looked like it triggered the application.
