Any updates from vancouver office? I sent an email no response.
Oath cancelled on 25th April
I applied from Vancouver but it appears that my oath was scheduled by the Saskatchewan office. I tried emailing and calling IRCC, I was told that I haven't been rescheduled yet. Looks like we really lucked out with the strike, now it's anyones guess when it'll happen

My oath taking is originally scheduled for May 8. Have not received any cancellation notice. Is there anyone here with the same date? Any updates?

I called this morning to IRCC. I was originally scheduled to take oath on 20th April Mississauga office. New date planned for the ceremony on 12th May the agent confirmed. Waiting for official email or tracker update. She told me to wait atleast until Friday may, 5 for official email.
My original date was 26th, I was told to wait around a week before new date.

Are in-person VS virtual oaths assigned randomly, or do we have a choice between the two?
Also, do all people get the certificate the same day with the in-person?

Ok, just called IRCC and the agent confirmed, that my mom's May 3rd oath (which was supposed to be online according to the agent, and for which we never received an actual invitation) was cancelled and that she will be rescheduled.

In-person and virtual oaths are randomly distributed and you cant choose. But yes, in-person oaths get the certificate right away where as virtual oath certificates are sent after the ceremony

Hi, my original oath ceremony was at 7:45 am on April 19 (the day the strike began) and was cancelled 13 mins before it was scheduled to take place.

I just received an email that it has been rescheduled to take place on May 10 at 8:30 am in person in Mississauga office. Very happy, can’t wait!
