Hi everyone! I applied on October 26th and all of my steps have been marked as complete since December 18th. The only thing in progress is the Oath Ceremony. Anyone in the same boat?
Completed my Oath today and became officially a Canadian Citizen.
It took about 90 minutes for the whole ceremony and also received my e-certificate within a few hours.

Hi. Has it moved forward since ? ...Did you apply for renewal of your passport ?
Thank you. Since am done with citizenship test, etc. and only waiting for LPP/ oath update, would you still recommend uploading the new docs using webform ? ...I am asking this as I have read somewhere that raising webforms also slows down the application processing.
Do IRCC officers work? I guess that they stopped their work in the name of the high volume of applications.
Nothing happened for more than 4 months since I passed citizenship test. Even BG is still in progress. I have no idea about the reason.
Everything is just a kind of random. Probably IRCC officers would play on-line games or enjoy their hobbies whole the day.
