Tracker updated - Oath scheduled for March 13th! No email with details yet.

Yay! I did request in person - and I believe my date has my venue closer to my home in Surrey. So that might have been why I got my notification first.
I still haven't received my email details yet either.
Yeah I think mine may be in person as well - looks like they do in-person ceremonies in Surrey on Wednesdays and in Vancouver on Fridays so that lines up for the both of us!
Received my email today (in junk) at 1:40 PM.
Even though I had asked, and had a replay saying that was received, for an in-person ceremony.
It was scheduled for virtual. SO ... I've requested in-person, again, so I think I'll get a new and later date.
Waiting for background and prohibition
Oath ceremony email received today at 10:54AM - virtual ceremony.
Has anyone been through the Virtual Oath ceremony yet? I'm just curious what the process is, I have a low Seat number and guess there will be some form of presentation followed by individual oaths by seat. Curious if after you complete your oath, cut up the PR and sign the document (all being witnessed - are you then able to leave or do you need to wait for everyone to complete the process. If there are only a dozen or so participants in a session, then probably not an issue but the invite is national (or at least the list the time in every Canadian timezone...
There are couple of youtube videos. Basically you join in. There will be a clerk who will let you in.
Then you go in various break rooms where the IRCC officers will verify your docs and ask you cut the PR card and congratulate you.
Then you wait in the common room where after all the candidates are admitted the IRCC officer will introduce the room to the judge. Nice videos are played and then the oath and singing of national athem is done.
Send the form only after your oath is complete and you drop from the call. The IRCC officer only verify cutting the PR card.
This is absolutely correct and exactly what happens in the virtual oath ceremony.
Took my oath virtually today. I am officially Canadian.
Waiting for my e-certificate. I hope to see it soon.
I started my journey back in 2017 when I randomly applied for PR via express entry and got ITA in three days and after much of delays I finally decided to land in Canada in Jan 2018 and then left for three years in 2019. Came back to Canada in March 2022 and finally got my citizenship today. Throughout I have only took help from this forum and didn’t go to any consultant.
I appreciate everyone who have helped me and answered my questions. I find everyone here being helpful and honest to their knowledge, I would say this forum is better than going to a consultants who delay the process just for their financial benefit and exploit the situation.
Again I thank everyone for their support and assistance throughout the whole journey.
Good luck everyone and be patient. I hope you guys will also write this message soon!

I also had my virtual ceremony today (Feb 26).
Glad it's all done and finally able to relax and not worry about Ghost Updates... To those waiting, it will come soon! Keep the faith and good luck!
