February 2022 paper applicant here. Just got DM yesterday.
how soon should I get my oath invite based on other peoples experience?

I had DM and all fields (probation, etc) updated same time at end of Oct. Almost a month now and no update since. Oath status is Not Started.
 
Congrats! Question: Does the passport get mailed to home or you have to go pick up at the passport office? If it's mailed, is it regular mail or passport holder needs to receive/sign it?
It was mailed to me via Xpresspost and required a signature. I believe you have to request and pay extra if you want to pick it up. The officer never brought up this possibility and I’m assuming it’s because it wasn’t urgent.
 
Hello, we received an email today inviting us for a virtual oath ceremony on December 06.

I'm relieved that this chapter will finally come to a close for us soon.

Good luck to everyone still waiting. Hopefully, it'll be your turn sooner rather than later.
 
Congratulations!! Can you post your detailed timelines ?

Hi, everything turned green in September. Yesterday after I emailed IRCC, I had a response back saying I'm scheduled for virtual oath on December 2nd. My tracker still say ceremony not started and I had no email invitation (I've checked box and junk mail). When should I worry and call or email IRCC? Anyone experienced same situation ? Thank you !

You should give them a call on Monday if you dont see anything till then. Also you can drop them an email on the test invite email address. They do reply back on that.
