I just sent my application via xpress canada post. It sent it to the regular mail address with tracking number and signature on it.
Because of long weekend , my application should be there on Wednesday.

Good luck to all who applied in May 2017. Please keep us updated if anybody get anything new .

Thanks for your encouragement Spelling19, I am tracking on their website for the past 4 days. Just now it says “out for delivery” but there is a small question mark underneath and when I put the cursor there it says deliver pending.
Out for delivery means it is on its way to the Case Processing Center in Syndey, Nova Scotia. It will be delivered on that day by your courier service and somebody will receive and sign it.

Hello fellow May applicants! Just sent 3 separate single applications last May 8, received May 15. How do we get notified re: AOR? Do I have to keep checking the online application status checker? Thanks and good luck to everyone!
No. you have to wait for your AOR by email if you have provided your email address in the application and if not, they will send it through regular mail. You need to wait 3-4 weeks for your AOR from the time it was received from someone at the Case Processing Center in Sydney, Nova Scotia based on the timeline trend for April 2017 applicants. The tracker is manually updated by yourself and you have to fill it out if there are updates on your application. Thanks :)

I have accurate dates of my visits to India, Jamaica , punta cana. But one/two visits of usa are not accurate in my case. But i have given more than enough buffer time to cover it up. In my case, it is possible that 3-4 days up or down. Usually, whatever you provide to government, they will cross verify. The purpose of the physical calculator is to make sure you were present 1460 days in Canada with 183 each year. They already asked about our consent for entry-exit from canadian border. I am applying with information I have and hopefully it should be fine.


According to the information you provided, you meet the requirements to be physically present in Canada as a permanent resident for at least:

  • 1460 days in the six years immediately before the date of your application, and
  • 183 days in each of four calendar years that are fully or partially in the six years immediately before the date of your application.


Arrival date:

Permanent residence date:

Application date:

Time spent serving a sentence (days):

Days absent:

Number of days physically present in last 6 years:

Number of calendar years physically present for 183 days in last 6 years:

Number of days physically present per calendar year:

2013 326
2014 337
2015 344
2016 356
2017 137

Yes you can. You are not prohibited from having a vacation solely because you submitted a Citizenship application. Just be updated for any communications from CIC. If you have provided your email address in the application, then you will receive correspondence through email, if not, then it will be sent through regular mail.

Hello everyone, just letting you know that applications that were received on or before April 21, 2017 are beginning to be processed according to CIC. Those applicants including me, who submitted their application and was received by first week of May 2017 might be receiving our AOR next week based on the timeline trend for the April 2017 applicants. It is recommended that you submit your application as soon as possible before Bill C-6 will be given Royal Assent and becomes a law since it is expected that many applications will be received by CIC as the residential requirement has been shortened to 3 years out of the 5 years and processing times will be tedious once more. ;):)
Very rightly said..good analysis

It cost me approx. 18$. Currier was 42$.

I originally wrote "49 Dorchester Street" address but while discussing to the Canada post employee, she suggested that write " Box 7000". She said that Xpresspost is not a courier service. I have added signature option on my expresspost. The application is already in Halifex, NS. The expected delivery is on Wed as Monday is holiday.
