None of us can tell you. It will be up to IRCC if they allow you take the oath outside of Canada or not.

As per Scylla's reply it's entirely upto IRCC in regards to what they will or won't allow. Send them an email asap, especially because your oath is so close....obviously I'm not asking you to divulge your personal information but is there 'zero' chance you can stick it out for the 3 weeks and perhaps then fly away and get your citizenship cert emailed to where you are based at the time?

Can I do that ? Can I get my certificate mailed to me to my home country ? And can I get a passport from my home country ? I think the embassy in my home country doesn’t give passports :(
Thanks

You could get someone to mail your certificate to you.....as for the passport well certain embassies are able to perform the action, have you checked online? I understand and appreciate that you need help and assistance and also don't know what's happening in your personal life, but please try and least do some research yourself as it'll help in the long run and get the answers from here to simply fill in the gaps and not look to this forum as the fountain of all knowledge even though yes many of us can give you our stories...but again they are simply 'our' stories and not 'yours'

Just to report my data point here: I could not return to Canada for the oath (zoom) due to some reasons. I wrote emails to IRCC according to the oath invitation email several times but could not get a reply.

Today I called in to the oath zoom meeting (tips: have a canadian vpn ready, zoom blocks non-canadian IP address), and explained my situation to the officer and gave the expected return time window (some weeks in August). The officer took notes about my situation and rescheduling time window on their "excel sheet" and let me leave the meeting. The officer also explained that summer vacations may be the reason why my office did not reply to my emails.

Hope this fresh data point help!

Is there a way to get urgent certificate or to pick it up ? I’ve seen some people who were able to pick up their certificate .

Only if when they ask have you got any travel planned you say 'yes' and let them know when....they can expedite the certificate....not sure if that means faster delivery or you can pick it up in person

I read someone posted Todsy on fb that if you’re travelling within 1 month then make you reschedule your oath :( I really don’t want to reschedule .

Certainly not to my knowledge, but why don't you get someone to forward you the citizenship cert to you afterwards?

Is it safe ? I just don’t want to lose it then I’ll be in trouble . Can they send it from Canada to Morocco ?

IRCC won't send it to Morocco as you're doing your oath in Canada as it seems but you could get a friend to forward it on to you via courier to Morocco
