Hi, Has anyone had a virtual citizenship oath ceremony in the recent past? If so, how long did it take for you to receive the Citizenship E Certificate?

I know official timeline is 2-5 business days but I'm wondering if it's been sooner in the recent past.
 
I haven't received the e-mail to download the citizenship certificate.
My oath is scheduled for 13th June. Will i receive it after the oath ceremony? i read that few people got it before the oath.

Mine was available to download the next day. Some people got theirs same day. It depends on how quickly you send back the oath form after the ceremony.
 
I have received oath scheduled for Online Ceremony on 15th Jun, but it only appeared on the Tracker. No email for invitation yet. Should I wait for the email invitation? However, last week I received instruction email for e -certificate downloading. I am confused here. Please guide me

I've been checking my husband and my own tracker, but today I tried to check my daughter's (she's 16) and I keep getting an error. I got her AOR to my email address, so I assume I would also get any other correspondence.

Starting to get really antsy about our application. Everyone else seems to be moving onto the next stage and we're just stuck.

Welcome to "the stuck at LPP" club!
Same thing here. LPP stuck since March 29 and even an officer has not been assigned to my application. This is beyond ridiculous!
 
Finallyyyyy, My LPP has been marked completed today. AOR Jan 15th. I think I missed the last batch of LPPs by a very thin margin and they might be clubbing AORs by 15 day window or something and this week we should see LPPs for AORs 16-30th Jan. Praying that my oath wait is not so long :fingerscrossed:.

Also one point to note, I had called them on Friday and was told my LPP was not even started with no officer assigned to it and within a few days it was completed

I don't think this 'not started / no officer assigned' to it is that meaningful. Just like it being 'stuck' in Vancouver.

Unfortunately it leaves very little info to distinguish what's (actually) happening, but I believe it's always been a bit of a black box (I think before it both took much longer and there was effectively no information of use - there may not be very much now but greater than zero).
