I got the DM on February 15th, Ottawa Office as well, hopefully I will have the Oath invitation next month.
Good going. Don't want to disappoint you but I see people getting oath invite after 6 months of DM. But strongly pray that all applications move pretty fast.

With IRCC anything is possible so I am not getting my hopes too high but thanks for the reality check.
Hopefully the entire backlog is cleared soon.

Finally the Ceremony was set to "Completed" and congratulations message about citizenship appeared on the tracker.
I was pleasantly surprised today - my citizenship certificate arrived in the mail.
I was told it was 2-4 weeks during the ceremony and there was no hurry, so I was elated!

I didn't apply for any urgent processing, so it was surprising to me really to have the certificate in hand in less than a week.

My citizenship/passport journey ends today. Finally received my passport (certificate came with it as well together thankfully) today. Almost 2 years to the day. Just around a week short. What a long and at times frustrating and stressful journey it has been. But it's finally here. I'm a relieved man. Thanks to everyone for answering my questions along the way. I really appreciate it!

To the people who are still waiting, hang in there. I know it takes forever, but it's worth it. You really are allmost there!
