I filled out the form about 2 weeks ago and received the same response no updates on the tracker.

This thread has been very quite lately so either everybody got their passports or there hasnt been any movement for a lot of people since the last wave of ceremony invitations.

I would say no movement for a lot of us. I'm a December 2020 Applicant as well and the last update on my file was back in November,, when they update the citizenship test to complete. Background and citizenship test mark as completed, everything else is still in progress with Oat not started. I sent web-form, they respond with their generic bs email and still no update to the tracker. It's just crazy how they say theuy have everything but yet it's taking them that long to complete the file.

Hey! How long did it take to get your citizenship certificate?

Anyone else who had their oath in the last month or two, how long did it take to get your certificates? Asking because I’m meant to be travelling for work end of next month and hoping I can get the certificate after my ceremony on Feb 17th and apply for passport asap.
Hey guys! Since no one responded. I’ll give a quick update here - I got my citizenship certificate exactly 2 weeks after my oath ceremony.
Good luck everyone - I hope everyone gets their oath ceremony/certificate soon!

That’s great, looks like the webform helped them to remember you have an application sitting somewhere haha. After the webform they updated my background check to be completed but nothing else. Looking at your timeline I’m hoping mine will get there in a week or so.
