Anyone in this group - Rescheduled Oath ? If yes, can you shed some details on how many days to get the new oath date ? As My PR Card expiring soon, wanted to take next steps to proceed with PR Renewal vs wait for Oath ?

there is no set time for it other than some months. the most i have seen people wait is 6 or more months and shortest was like 3-4 months.... just pay the $50 for the pr card...

Hello guys,
Has anyone here been canceled the ceremony by IRCC on Jan 25th?
I was invited to a virtual ceremony on Jan 25 but they sent an email to cancel Jan 19 because of a shortage of staff.
Until now I have not received any new date.

My wife's application updates:

Application filed - Oct 5th, 2023
Location - SCR office
AOR - Nov 6th, 2023
Test invite - Nov 22nd, 2023 (Test window between Nov 24th to Dec 23rd 2023)
Background check completed - Nov 16th, 2023
Test taken - Dec 2nd , 2023
Test status completed - Dec 4th, 2023 (Tracker updated on Dec 6th, 2023)
LPP completed - Feb 21st, 2024 (Tracker updated on Feb 23rd, 2024)
Citizenship e-certificate email received - Haven't Received any email for e-certificate download instructions yet. Still waiting.
Citizenship ceremony - Received email with Oath date details PDF and general info and instructions PDF for e-certificate on Feb 26th, 2024. Also, she's been asked to attend the oath ceremony online (tracker has not been updated yet)
Oath ceremony scheduled for Mar 6, 2024 @ 10.45 AM (mountain time)

So, for 10.45 AM mountain time (MT) I am pretty sure it would be 12.45 PM as per Toronto, Ontario time. Can anyone please confirm if I am right about the mountain time thing as I really confused at what time she should attend the ceremony online in Toronto Ontario?

I hope this information helps all the October 2023 applicants and specially people from SCR office.

Thanks

MST to EST is 2 hrs difference.. If you are in East coast & your invite says 10.45 AM MST then whatever you are saying is correct ..

I sent multiple emails 4 weeks back says I will be out of country and need to reschedule oath but I did not recieved any response to my emails.
Can this be the reason.

Please guide me.
