Some people have been told that the final decision rests with a supervisor and they will receive the decision in the mail. In those cases they have received an oath ceremony date in the mail later. I suspect if you fail you would be told at the time. I know I was told the approval needed the final decision of the IO's supervisor - but then she had me wait so she could give me the letter for the next oath ceremony. Perhaps if a supervisor isn't immediately available, the decisions are finalized shortly afterwards and the oath ceremony invitations sent out when the individual is scheduled for a ceremony.
