Converting Oracle date type to SQL Server date type

Hi guys, what is your experience when extracting oracle dates to SQL server?

My goal is to extract a Date type from Oracle to SQL Server Date type but I'm getting "Invalid date format", so I need to convert it with TO_CHAR(oracle_date,'YYYYMMDD') to a varchar(8) field in SQL server and then convert it to a date.

I would like to extract it directly as date without having to make this double conversions.

Thank you
