Got an email this morning telling me I have to appear for an "In Person" interview at the scarborough office at 11:45AM on August 23rd. Passed my test 5 months ago (19/20). Anyone heard of this in person interview before?

I was sent an email on Monday as well for the exact same date and time for Interview as yours. Completed my Citizenship test on March 28, 2022.

Hi all,

I had my oath ceremony yesterday, and today my status tracker says closed and my citizenship has been approved. Does this mean that my certificate has been shipped out?

Thank you for your response in advance.

That's interesting. I did hear about special oath ceremonies that were conducted in person. But not from Ontario. It was in July in Alberta with around 30 candidates. Don't have any other info about in-person ceremony. Maybe IRCC is testing the waters with in-person event, but the majority of the events now are virtual via zoom with around 100 candidates. 4 sessions a day during the weekdays ( according to the judge presiding the ceremony )
Well I can only relay what I saw, and that was a load of people going in for in person ceremony. Beyond that, on the Facebook page I am on, girl went in for her interview, and immediately after the interview, was directed to another room and did her ceremony in person the same day which I found incredible.
Honestly I am pretty pissed off at this whole thing, it's like the Canadian system has turned into a gong show. I am hearing about people who applied almost a full year AFTER I did, and they've already gotten their oath AND even their passport, and this is not isolated to just me...it's a bunch of haphazard unorganized none sense run by a government that doesn't have it's crap together. Seriously. SO MANY varying stories and inconsistencies all across the board. Sorry for the rant but it's gotten way beyond what one would expect from a country like Canada

Just wondering, what is the timeline for DM/Oath ceremony after completing the interview?

Is anyone here waiting for DM/Oath after an interview?

I can't agree more! and they are extremely unaccountable and you can't do anything about it. They have the upper hand and they never pick up the phone or even reply to an email. Even for me I requested my ATIP notes (they replied asking me about which type I want which I already indicated from the dropdown in the request) and then I never heard back since June 20 and it shouldnt exceed 30 CALENDAR DAYS!!!!
I'm still stuck at the Background Check phase (in progress) since March, I did my test and NOTHING AFTER!!! And I can't do anything about it other than wait! I had travel plans in October that I was looking forward to since January of this year - it will very soon be cancelled. It's disgusting honestly! :(

well first off, disregard the background check. With me hardly ANYTHING was checked off except test and one other thing. Then I was called for the interview (in person) then a few days later everything was checked off. My only question now is will my oath be in person or virtual. It affects my future travel as in person you receive the certificate in hand. Otherwise it's another gong show wait for the certificate
