  • On Mar 6 2024, my oath ceremony was scheduled (Mar 20). I tried to reschedule due to a potential out-of-Canada travel, but then decided to put off my travel and take the oath on that day.
  • On Mar 20, 2024, I joined the Zoom call while physically in Canada and took the oath. During check-in, an IRCC officer checked my IDs and location (asked me to open the map app on my phone and show my location), then asked me to cut my PR card into 4 pieces. I was also told that my citizenship certificate would probably arrive by the end of the next day if I emailed the signed form on time (I was also given the option to choose a physical one instead, but I stayed with an electronic one). The whole process took about 50 minutes. I emailed the signed oath of citizenship form right after the ceremony concluded.
  • On Mar 21, 2024, I got the e-certificate on the IRCC portal, thus concluding my immigration trek.
