Because Catholics believe that the celebration of the Eucharist is a sign of the reality of the oneness of faith, life, and worship, members of those churches with whom we are not yet fully united are ordinarily not admitted to Holy Communion. All who are not receiving Holy Communion are encouraged to express in their hearts a prayerful desire for unity with the Lord Jesus and with one another.

FROM A STATEMENT BY THE UNITED STATES CONFERENCE OF CATHOLIC BISHOPS

Communicants at Ordinariate Masses receive the sacrament kneeling at the altar rail unless prevented by health. We encourage communicants to consider the example of Masses celebrated by the Holy Father, where the faithful receive the Sacred Host directly on the tongue.
