These


For point1, there was no option to upload the pp stamp pages when i submitted the online application. only the pp front page was possible. So i scanned and sent a pdf with the stamped pages in the email.

For point 2, I was in my home country and i didnt even have my pp created. My pp was created on June 20, 2017. I told exactly this and told that my first international travel was to land in Canada as PR on x date.

Not sure what else to provide tbh
Hi, can you please share how you handled this issue. I received the same email today

Congrats.

Do you think filing OIC Complaint helped your case? How soon did you get a response from OIC after filing a complaint?

I honestly think it made a difference because the "Oath Ceremony" portion changed to "in progress" the very next day. I doubt it was purely coincidental.

I just got a confirmation of receipt from OIC. They take forever to investigate complaints, but I believe they do notify the agency in question (ie. IRCC, CBSA, etc.) as soon as a complaint is successfully filed. This brings eyes to your file right away.

I got an auto response with a temporary reference number. Is that the one, or will I receive any further communication from oic?

To the best I know you rarely receive any further communication, they inform IRCC & someone looks into the case file.

I have to sit in oath ceremony on Feb 1 but I am travelling on feb 5 to my home country. So I postpone it until march and By call I confirm that they CIC will make arrangement in march for oath. But Now I am not able to login in my tracker. Every time I put login id and password it just shows loading/chargement.... Is it normal?

This is an issue which people face when they are near there oath date. Normally it goes away once the oath is done. Not sure how it will be in your case as you asking for reschedule but mostly once the date passes it should start working again.
