Hi friends, I have oath ceremony scheduled for APril 18 2023. Per my understanding, there will a citizenship certificate mailed to my address in 2 weeks. My question is what is the next step after that with regards to getting a passport. Do they automatically mail the passport to my address? If I have to go in person and apply for passport, what are the steps if I need passport before May 15? How long is the processing time for getting first Canadian passport after certificate? If I have travel on May 15th, can i expedite the process?

You have to apply, no auto passport is sent. There are options you can use to get passport early. Please check the above link, it has all the info.
 
okay. Thank you so much, If I wait and do not expediate, what is the average processing time to get passport mailed to my address.
I don't have much idea about mailed passport application timelines. Will let other's chime in who have gone through that process.

Under 2 week for standard processing of the passport application if you apply at passport Canada office
Plus mail time of a week for the passport to be mailed to your address
