I have been waiting for two months for oath after decision made.I want to email them just to get an update. Does anyone have the email address of Mississauga office? Or should I use the email address I got the test invitation or passport request?

I applied for Nexus as well. As per the CBSA website, they offer a decision of conditional approval within 30 business days. However, I'm not sure how much time CBP would take.

Hey. I applied sometime on September 23rd and I got my conditional approval on 25th October.

No, you can't enjoy the benefits of Nexus until you complete the whole process. You have to be done with your interview and get your Nexus card before you can access its benefits.

As you can see here, there are no appointments available in Canada or the US. But we have 2 years from the date of conditional approval to complete the interview. I have until October 2023. There's enough time, I guess. Once they re-open interview slots, we can go ahead and complete the process.

Great.

As for the oath, it's hard to say. It could be anything from 3 weeks to 3 months or more. There are people have waited 6 months and more and there are people that have got the oath invites a day after the DM. The current average for September applicants is 60 days. (Saskatoon's average for the year is 60 days, nut that may be skewed as there aren't enough data points)

One reason to be hopeful is that ramping up virtual oaths for granted applicants was a pretty important target for IRCC. They completed 76000 oaths in 2021, and they are now (allegedly) doing 3500-5000 per week, that's between 182000-260000 in 2022.

So I expect people to stay in the DM pool for less
