Oath or affirmation of citizenship form required
We sent you the oath or affirmation of citizenship form. You’ll fill out this form at the ceremony. If you’re at an in-person ceremony, you’ll submit your signed form at the ceremony.
If you are at a video oath ceremony, email your signed form to us (follow the instructions we sent you).

Should I expect more updates on the tracker?

I'm not 100% certain but IIRC basically after the oath is scheduled, you won't see anything until 'complete' - and that may be some time after you do the oath and get citizenship and the certificate and all (not high priority to update for them - and you already have everything).

I guess I am just surprised to see another update after the oath is scheduled on June 14, but I did receive the email for notice to appear. just wondering if this is common

I may need to travel back to my home country due to a critical illness in the family and might be gone for a couple of months. Been waiting for LPP for 3 months but not sure when it will arrive so can't wait anymore. Do I need to tell IRCC? Any suggestions will be super helpful thx

I must have misunderstood your question. Yes, you may see other updates on tracker related to the oath ceremony (like the form notification you got), and those may duplicate emails you received. After the ceremony itself I think there are few updates.

Don't think you need to tell them. You can travel while your citizenship application is in progress. If they want you to give an interview, then I guess you might need to be back here, but of course you can let them know you're out of the country and work around it that way. Same with the oath, you can ask for a new date if you're still out of the country when it is scheduled.

I hope your family member gets well!

For those who got their passport, how long was the waiting time?

For in-person oath, they ask you to wait 2 business days before applying. After that, if you have an urgent travel reason you can get it as fast as same day (you pay a additional $$)
