Hello guys! Our application was received Application April 26, 2017 and
AOR was May 19. Here are the status of our ecas and gckey
ECAS
  1. We received your application for permanent residence on April 26, 2017.
  2. We sent you correspondence on May 20, 2017. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.
Our GCKEY

Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements. Help
Review of medical results If you need a medical exam, a message with instructions will be sent to you. Help
Review of additional documents We do not need additional documents. Help (It was like this even before we send the Schedule A and PCC

Final decision Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

We didn't receive any correspondence. We sent Schedule A and PCC last June 14 by mail and IRCC received it June 15. We didn't see on our GCkey that the documents we provided is uploaded. No SA and medical request too and our application is still in CPC-M. Should we worry or some of you have the same status as our application. Thanks ;)
I am exactly in same boat...my application was received on 25 April, 30th May i received medical request and passed on 7th june.. until now i have exactly same GCKey... i voluntarily submitted PCC and Sch A by courier been 10 days and no update yet... I am kind of worried...

Received AOR1 email again with exactly the same content:

UCI: XXXXXXX
Application No.: XXXXXX
Quote these numbers when corresponding with our office.

This is an automated message. Please DO NOT RESPOND to this message.

Dear XYZ,

This confirms that your application for permanent residence in Canada has been received by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) on 2017/04/28.

When should I contact CIC?
You must notify CIC of any changes to your application. Examples of changes include:
• Changes in your personal circumstances, such as birth or adoption of a child, a marriage or adivorce
• Change of contact information (e-mail, mailing address, telephone number)
• Appointment or change of immigration representative or designated individual
• Decision to withdraw your application
Wondering what does that means! Our application has already been transferred to local VO (i.e. Singapore in our case).
Is it a system glitch or AOR2? Has anyone else received the same?

Does it have Singapore address at the bottom? If it does then it is AOR2, my wife got same & I am sponsoring her from Bangladesh. If you check ECAS using her UCI then you will see status is "in process" now

It does have Singapore address at bottom. Didn't notice it. So, this is AOR 2!
Thanks you mahirasef for pointing this out :)

Same here. As unfortunate as this situation is, at least I'm not an isolated event :) They must be slammed.. and I guess it doesn't help that it's almost august and people are going on vacation.

Also, we received an email from CIC saying you are having troubles signing in your GCkey account because of etc issues. However we are able to log in to gckey without any problem. Was that just a general email for everyone?

Hey guys we submitted the medical almost a month back but we haven't received any approval on it.. what's the usual timeline?
My wife's medical was submitted to Ottawa VO last Thursday, just yesterday on Monday her status was updated on GCkay saying that she has passed.
