Sure - will post here when I get my e-cert. Oath completion and signature email had a gap of only 5 minutes!

May be one more question to you that can help anxious / eager folks like me

Was your ceremony scheduled for 9 am today, or when ?
Plus how long the entire ordeal was, before you got to sign the document ?

Hi all! I have been scheduled to attend to the citizenship oath two different dates. Anybody had this situation before? I still haven't received any email with the formal invitation. If I actually get the invitiation via email for the 4th I will probably just show up... Thanks!

Hi guys
Is the ecas update only in the morning like the tracker ?
My last update was June 26 for test completed and waiting for lpp but what I know it’s coming first as decision made first in ecas that’s right ?

I got it yesterday only. There is a link to download certificate on the IRCC portal (you would have got the link in oath email) where you enter your application details. I tried several times and it showed not available but worked at night. you don't get any notification if it is available or not. Depends on the coordinator when they sign and update in system.

You are right, this is what i heard from others too. (This is for paper applicants like you)

Can you please let us know as you received your "Decision Made" update which I hope to be very soon for you.
Just wondering in your Ecase what is the time showing for start processing your application?
Good luck!
