Haven't reached this stage but it's better if you call and let them know about this since I read a case where the certificate of the child was delayed because they hadn't got the invite.
It can go either ways - the whole oath getting delayed or the clerk can add the kid then and there and complete their part.

Hey,

I've been in a somewhat similar situation. I'm currently in Canada, but my son, who's a minor at 4.5 years old, is overseas and will be there for a few months. He's the only one in my application. Since minors don't have to attend the ceremony, I'm thinking of representing both of us during the Oath. I was wondering if getting his PR card cut after the Oath would work. Since you've already been through the Oath ceremony, could you please share your experience and let me know if this would work? What kind of questions do the officers typically ask about the minor? Do they inquire about whether the minor is in Canada or not? Your insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
i am in the same situation as you now. Can you share your experience please.
Were you able to attend the ceremony without your kid? How did you apply for passport?

thanks

I am in the same boat. My son received an oath invitation, does he need to attend it or can I attend on his behalf, or does niether of us need to attend it?

The kid's PR card needs to be cut...
You can do it for him in front of the IRCC officer and then leave, as there's no oath requirement for him.

yes, i believe it should be fine if minor is not in Canada because they are not required to be present in the ceremony. If they are not required to be present in the ceremony then they can be anywhere.
