Curious to know if they encourage requests to receive the electronic citizenship certificate the same day as the virtual oath ceremony?
Afaik, they just encouraged everyone to send their signed oath certificates asap. E certificate people will get an email within 24h and the certificate will be available 2-5 business days later. They also asked us to send an email only after 5 business days if we do not receive certificate

How long does it usually take to get an update on OATH? It's Calgary office
Congratulations, spreadsheet updated
It can take from 1 week to 2 months depending upon the officer.

If you don’t get your invitation within couple of days after LPP is completed, no one can tell you how long does it take.
2 weeks? 3 weeks? Maybe couple of months!

Just got my passport! That concludes this long journey, all the best to those still awaiting next steps.

Timeline for passport (Passport pilot program)
1. Oct 21: Form + Receipt + Photo sent via Canada Post tracked mail (Vancouver)
2. Oct 22: Oath
3. Oct 24: Canada Post tracking shows delivered (Calgary)
4. Oct 25: E-cert available for download
5. Oct 29: Passport printed (See issue date from actual passport)
6, Oct 31: Passport in hand via Canada Post Expresspost 2 days delivery.

That pilot is really fast! Much faster than the 20 business days they said it would take.
