Yeah that's the response I got too... But I saw 2 other people here in the forums who got their application approved the same date as me in the Niagara Office (August 3rd) and they got their oath invite on August 18... Have no clue why I didn't get invited even though I requested for a fast processing. I have opt in for the e-certificate and I'm getting suspicious they're not ready to issue e-certs yet and that's why I'm not getting oath invite...
good for them. my app is approved on June 15 and waiting for oath since then. Mine is Hamilton office though

Yeah, I also saw at least 2 other people in these forums who had their applications approved in early to mid June like me, also processed by Niagara Falls, and received their oath invites in late June to early July.

How did you opt in for the e-certificate? Did you get a separate email offering you that?

Some offices are known to be quite slow, and sometimes people wait a long time for oath. It seems that most Ontario applications outside the GTA get sent to Niagara Falls for oath, and the transfer might delay the oath a bit? I've seen a number of people from Kitchener and Ottawa who also got oaths with Niagara Falls and had to wait longer than average. But waiting 2+ months is still very unusual regardless.

in my test email they sent a word file explaining if I am interested to opt in for the pilot program... it clearly mentions that after the oath I will have access to my e-certificate right away from the online portal! Assuming that would help me get the cert in my hands faster I opted in but possibly now it is back firing on me haha

At least you have been processed by Niagara Falls throughout, which is why your application has moved even this quickly. You'll probably get oath invite soon, and you're still a month under the one year mark. And after oath, you will get your certificate right away and without the risk of being lost in the mail.

Hi everyone,

Is there a phone number I can call for the status of my application? I tried IRCC and they say they don't redirect the call to an operator and just apologize. Enough apologies I need an answer!

I am the same situation as you. I applied for urgent ceremony and I was told the Niagara office is scheduling me for ceremony, but no scheduling yet. Can you please give me the Niagara office email address? I need to submit some new documents to them.
