I received my oath ceremony invitation today around 8:45 am and it is 10 pm. I still did not get any instruction or email on how to perform the oath (email with instruction). Is it normal? Do I wait few more days? What should be done? Oath is May 10th.

You should (soon) receive an email that contained a pdf file with clear instructions on how to log onto the zoom session.

Hi,
I read on one of the forums saying the instruction on citizenship oath should be received a few days before the ceremony. If not you can call and the IRCC agent will email you a copy.

Hi Guys,

I need some help with my citizenship application. I reached out via webform but no luck. Is there anything I can do to move my application to the next steps. It feels like my application is stuck or something is holding it up.

Timeline:
Paper application sent - April 2021
AOR - 3 August 2021
Background check complete - 20 September 2021

No update after that.

Mine was stuck after Nov, when my citizenship test status was updated. I requested for access to information for my case notes. I received my case notes after a few weeks and I did see that same day they generated the notes, they also updated my other statuses to complete - now only pending oath to get scheduled. My interpretation is that they were sleeping on my application and request for information woke them up.

You can request the notes online from here.

Hope this helps.

My timeline (Family application- 2 people, 1765 days presence, applied from Oshawa, case processing primary center was Sydney and secondary was Scarborough):

AOR: June 6, 2021
Background verification complete: Sep 16, 2021
Test scheduled: Nov 5, 2021
Test complete: Nov 12, 2021

Good luck. How many days does it take from decision made to oath invite. Also, do you know how many days before the oath ceremony do they give the date. Any ideas or guesses?
