The authors of this paper consider a neutral parabolic differential equation, \[ \partial/\partial t\Biggl[u+ \sum^m_{i=1} p_i(t) u(x, \tau_i(t))\Biggr]- \sum^l_{j=0} a_j(t)\Delta u(t)x, \] \[ \rho_i(t)+ c(x,t,u(x,\sigma_0(t)), u(x, \sigma_1(t)),\dots, u(x, \sigma_s(t)))= f(x,t), \] where \((x,t)\in \Omega\times \mathbb{R}_+\equiv G\). Here \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) with a piecewise smooth boundary \(\partial\Omega\), in addition the functions \(p_i\), \(a_j\), \(f\) are continuous with respect to their arguments. Three kinds of linear boundary conditions are considered. After introducing certain conditions for the coefficients of the considered equation, it is shown that every solution is oscillatory on \(G\). The authors give a set of sufficient conditions to the existence of oscillatory solutions for different boundary-value problems.
