Congrats on becoming a citizen!
Have you received your email with the oath invitation on the same day as the status was updated in your account? My status was updated a couple of days ago but I still haven't received the email.

Also, was the oath virtual, on zoom?

Lol, you actually received a call?
If I ever did, I would have thought it was one of those scammers.

Yes it was an Ottawa number and I do receive alot of spam calls from Ottawa but had a gut feeling to pick this call up. I am so glad I did lol.
I travel multiple times a month to the US so the officer just wanted to make sure I am currently present in Canada to take the oath and will be okay not traveling for a few weeks until I get my passport.
