How did you know when the e-certificate was ready? I just did the oath today.
Congratulations. I just checked the portal 3-4 times a day until it was finally available to download.

Has anyone received paper certificates from the Niagara office? How long did it take?
My ceremony is December 6 and I’m a little old school and prefer paper.

Just wondering if it really takes up to 4weeks or if it is faster these days.
Did you received any documents about that? I suppose to have my ceremony also today but after several attempts trying to get something CIC told me that looks like they was some mistakes there and will be rescheduled..

Hi all, took my oath this morning. On my initial application I had indicated a paper certificate. However, when I got the invite to appear it said that everyone is getting e-certificate unless we email and ask for paper based - I did NOT email as I don't mind e-certificate. When I log-in to the portal to download the certificate, I get the following error: "You have not opted to receive an electronic Citizenship Certificate". Is this normal?

@Calgary222 Thank you so much for providing these links
I just tried to download the certificate and got the following error message:
There were issues submitting your form.
  • You have not opted to receive an electronic Citizenship Certificate.

When receiving an oath invitation I got an instructions that my application was selected to receive e-certificate and if I want to change for paper certificate I should notify them. I did not send any emails assuming I will get an e-certificate by default.

Did anyone experience similar issue?
