Does anyone know of any situation where I will be allowed to keep my PR card after the ceremony? I have a work trip a day after my in-person oath ceremony, I can't cancel the trip and would rather not postpone the ceremony cos its been a long wait (26 months) since my application. I'm wondering if I will be allowed to keep my pr card to re-enter Canada. Or know other options I can exploit? Thanks

If your trip is in USA you can enter via the land border. You won't be able to keep your PR card.
if it is in person, you will get your certificate on the spot, not sure what will be the time of you ceremony, but you can apply same day for a passport (have your application ready) and show service Canada your flight or trip plan and they will issue you a passport within an hour
Any one he get invitation Oath in person

Congrats, you will have a big day in a special day ^_^
did you get invitation for that day?
My file was in Niagara Falls for a few months and I recently found out that it was transferred to Mississauga VO since I received my test invite from their office. I called IRCC and they confirmed that it has been transferred.
I wanted to understand what the average wait time is for LPP Completion and Oath ceremony invitation after Test is complete?

Mine was transferred in March to Mississauga, test, BGC and language completed, and still waiting! I think files that get transferred do stuck somewhere!!
In my case, i got test invite after the transfer so it’s on some officer’s radar. So I’m hoping
How long does it take to get the citizenship certificate from Mississauga location? I had my oath on 1st June. It had been 2 weeks and I haven't received the certificate yet.
Anyone has email id for contacting Mississauga office? My file was recently transferred (after test completion) from NGF to Mississauga. I had emailed NGF to check on my status where I learnt that the file was transferred. Would appreciate if anyone can share email id for Mississauga office.
So I got some update today on my file (application of 2). Language and Prohibitions is complete. However, physical presence is still in process. Anyone in the same boat? Or does anyone know why does that happen? I have usually seen others getting all 3 done at the same time
Interesting. Good you saw your physical presence completed in 5 days after language and prohibitions. Hopefully I will see mine as well soon. Did you have too many absences/travel? I have about 40 cross-border (US) trips which could be the reason why physical presence wasn't done at the same time. I also have about 30 buffer days in my file, so I am not too worried about it. But hopefully this won't result in too much of a delay
Do you mind sharing your timeline?
Not many, just 2 trips totalling 18days but I was actually worried because I had just 4 buffer days…
