Hey group, I have a quick question for those who requested "e-certificate" in their applications.

I have requested "e-certificate" as part of my online application in March and my oath is scheduled on July 18th. In the oath invitation letter there is one sentence caught my eyes. Under Steps to take AFTER the video oath ceremony section, it says: "You will be sent your paper citizenship certificate by regular mail within 2 to 4 weeks ONLY once we have received your signed...". I don't understand why it says they will send our paper citizenship certificate.

For those of you have have already received your e-certificates, do they mention that you will receive e-certificate in you oath invitation letters? Many thanks!!!
You should contact them through the email address they've listed.

I got my oath letter today and it says "Your electronic citizenship certificate (e-certificate) will be available within the IRCC portal, three business days after we receive your signed Oath..."

Thank you. I have contacted them to correct the certificate type through email. Will update here once they get back to me.

Did you get an email on how to download your e-certificate besides the Zoom link mail?
I asked for a e-certificate and got the download link.

How long does it take for you from asking e-certificate to receiving the download link? I sent out the inquiry email this morning (July 10th), hav't received an response yet.

Oh it was part of the original application. Soon after the tracker updated to Oath Scheduled I got a mail with the download link.
