Hi. I took mine with Niagra April 19th and my tracker still shows in progress even though I requested for urgent processing of certificate. Ecas shows complete yesterday. Did you check ecas status?
I am an online applicant. They do not have access to ECAS as per my understanding.

Hi All,
Does IRCC send the citizenship certificate to the address on the application or do they send it to an address that we provide during the ceremony?
Thank you.

During the ceremony they will check the address with you. If you wish to have it sent to an address that is different from the one on the application, you can say so then.

Hi everybody
could you please explain what happens during the Oath, and after?
I saw someone saying there is an option for an electronic citizenship certificate? does it work for having a passeport?
thanks
The officer will ask if you'd like to sign the Citizenship Affirmation electronically and email it or would like to print out and mail the signed document. That's all about it.

If your oath is in next 15-20 days or awaiting oath certificate & you are planning to travel after that, book appointment now (assuming 2 weeks for oath certificate to come) .

Observations regarding appointments for in-person passports:
1. It seems appointments are opened at 8 PM ET (atleast for GTA locations) for date 1 month from today's date.
2. They are probably not opening any appointments for Mississauga & Brampton as there was no appointment available even exactly at 8 PM, while many appointments became available for other locations.

If I haven't received the certificate yet, is there any way I could apply for a Canadian passport?
Otherwise, how would I be able to leave and reenter Canada without my PR card or a Canadian passport?
Unfortunately, no! You need the Certificate number to complete your passport application.

:(
If I have the original citizenship certificate with me, would it be possible to get my first passport abroad?
Also I saw some people saying they were able to pick up their certificates in person to expedite the process, but apparently this is not possible in all offices.
Does anyone know if this can be done in the Mississauga office?

When does the Citizenship Ceremony process is marked "Complete" after Oath?
Mine is no longer showing 'Waiting for you' - but it is still 'In Progress'.

Any insight?
