The instructions will be sent via email.
I am in the same boat (for my in-laws) their oath is on Dec. 29, no email as yet. I just called this morning and he told me that I should follow up a week before the date or even couple of days before. He said, you will receive an email. He even said that the date maybe changed or its not final. I dont know what that means :) I think he saying it may be case by case or in case they find something so they may change the date.

By email- in the email attachment.
Thanks. It seems that it will be sent a few days prior the actual ceremony.

I think I can assume that It will be an online ceremony.

Yes, it could be sent few days to max a week before the ceremony. Mine was sent three days after I saw the update on the tracker. And yes, it should be an online process- I had my oath on Dec 1 and am waiting for the certificate now.
Good luck

In your case the email might come a week before or maybe 2-3 days before the oath.

The instructions advise you to have your pr card with you during the ceremony as the card will be cut after the oath. For more information on the oath please check this post by @rajkamalmohanram

how long do we have to wait until we get the certificate after the oath ceremony? I think we all agree that what we all want more it's the f@#ing passport.

Hello everyone, it has been 4 months since my DM (July 29), and there is no update for ceremony on my tracker (ceremony not started), I called them a few weeks ago and they said "we are not able to provide you with an update over the phone, you need to check the tracker and junk mail for any update from your officer. " It's so frustrating and don't know what to do :( :(

now that I got my invitation i can just tell you, be patient, you will get it, you are so close, you do not need to worry. Jajaaj, this is all a lie, I know the frustration you are having, I feel you, I just don’t think there is anything we can do.
