Is there any way to inquire on status of application prior to AOR? Application was received Sept 14 and still no AOR yet. Frustration levels are rising :(

I'm sorry you don't have an AOR yet... It can be very frustrating. Unfortunately, it's hard to track it before AOR. I wonder why it's taking them so long...

Can you check your spam directories for e-mails ending in 'cic.gc.ca' just to make sure? What does your online application portal say?
You could try giving them a call and see in case your AOR went to spam and got deleted...

Hopefully, you'll get your AOR soon!

If one person in the family get's AOR, everyone should get it. There is zero chance of partial application returns.

Check your spam folders for emails from 'cic.gc.ca'... If it's too late and your spam directory is empty, best bet is to call IRCC and get the Application numbers over the phone

I’ve checked all folders in the email everyday multiple times a day :( and search for it too but nothing. Only the email confirming receipt.

When I log into the application portal it says we have received your application and we WILL send the AOR when we have reviewed.

Can someone with AOR log into the application portal and see if it says they have reviewed the application and sent AOR?

I see! Your best bet would be to call IRCC and see if they have opened a file for you...

I believe even after receiving AOR the application portal continues to show the same page... Maybe someone else can chime in

If the email starts with “This is to acknowledge receipt of your application for Canadian Citizenship” is it aor? Because when I go on the website it says “this is not aor” so I’m confused.

Yes that is AOR with your application number on top.
Starts like that



This is to acknowledge receipt of your application for Canadian Citizenship. We will review your
application and supporting documents and will contact you if additional information is required......
