Received today! :)
Wow, great news! I did read on multiple threads that the officers mark the case as "Closed" when the certificate gets mailed. Nothing solid, but it appears that, once that status is reached, the certificate is on its way and takes 1-2 weeks.

Edit: I got "Closed" today as well! Here's to hoping I get my certificate soon as well! Are you going to apply from Montreal or bring it with you to New York and file from there?

UPDATE: My case has now moved to "Closed", so I'm hoping to get the certificate relatively soon - fingers crossed!

You are done with IRCC. Congratulations on that and on becoming a Canadian citizen.

@chs @rajkamalmohanram from your previous reads from this forum. Have you come across applicants having a lag between online status tracker update and receiving a corresponding Email notification?
In my case, I see my status tracker got updated on Dec 2nd mentioning Oath is scheduled for 18th Dec. However, I havent received any Email notification with Oath Ceremony instructions.

You don’t get any email notifications for any status changes you mentioned above. I would recommend sending webform request / calling them. My Background checks only got complete after sending webform request
I’m gonna try that, let’s hope I don’t get back a rude ass reply for asking about my application lol.

You'll receive an email about a week or two before the ceremony (usually a week before).

When soon? If it's in less than a week, give them a call the first thing Monday morning. IRCC is unreliable and clumsy probably because of old age, and it's plausible they may forget to send you the invitation on time. Also, make sure the invitation includes a zoom link. Someone received an invitation with no zoom link, contacted them and IRCC sent another invitation also without a zoom link, and only in the third time they included the link in the invitation.
