Ceremony oath outside Canada possible ?

[Prats]

Hi

I am a PR who will be applying for the Citizenship under the new law. After successfully passing the test, I wish to leave CA for a long time. I was wondering if I can take the oath in the embassy in my home country (New Delhi, India) ? I am quite sick and I don't think I will be in a position to return in 6 months time and I definitely don't want to delay the oath ceremony. If that is possible, then I would also like to apply for a CA passport while being there.

I was reading about Citizenship oath on the CIC site and came across this paragraph that made me think that it is possible to appear for the ceremony even outside Canada.

" Who is authorized to administer oaths?
In Canada, an authorized person is the Registrar, a citizenship judge, a citizenship officer, a commissioner for taking oaths, a notary public or a justice of the peace. Outside Canada, an authorized person is a foreign-service officer, a judge, a magistrate, an officer of a court of justice or a commissioner, authorized to administer oaths in the country in which the person is living. "

Thank you so much for your time !

You jest, but its a good question. Since there is no legal barrier to "applying on the way to the airport now," how would IRCC handle an applicant with an overseas (or interplanetary) address? How would such an application be processed? In what office?

There is no oath outside Canada. What you quoted, is for people who are resuming citizenship or getting proof of citizenship.
There is nothing stopping you from applying from abroad if you meet the requirements since you just mail the application to an address but the test/interview/oath is held inside Canada. If your application does proceed without RQ, you will need to fly back twice to take the test and oath.

I postponed my ceremony twice because i was outside of Canada. I was not allowed to take the oath abroad.So i return to Canada to get it. I attended the citizenship ceremony today. And you must be on Canada soil to take the oath. And Even during the online ceremony, the clerk check you are in Canada or not. I have too show the out of the window. If you are not in Canada, the ceremony will be delayed until you return to Canada.
