I am wondering if people are not updating their July data on the spreadsheet, or did CIC slow down? Compared to previous months, looks like July has been very quiet. Based on this rate, I am assuming August will be slower.

According to the spreadsheet, the time for application delivery to AOR is averaging 35 days for June. It has been much faster in the months before. However I feel the time for AOR seems to be getting a bit faster again judging from the last few people who got it.

Fingers crossed

It is disheartening to look at december/january spreadsheets with only one week to get AOR.
The new rule has not come to effect yet but we already have an extra month of delay in AOR which will not be reflected in processing times because our applications will only go into process after AOR...

My PR expires in January. Do you guys think I'll have to renew it at the current processing pace?

Very true... Hopefully we'll start seeing some movement by early next week. I am keeping eye out on your timeline as your one of the first few who applied in July. Good luck

Really hard to say and it defers from case to case. My PR expires September so I've already applied.

And I am also one of the active ones, so you will definitely know if I have received something.

July Aug is the school holidays and peak vacation period, I assume most of the processing officers are on holidays and it would take a much longer time to process the application in the summer. They also mention that it takes 12 months to process so they can do it as slow as they can. In January I know someone got citizenship in 4 weeks from start to finish, now it takes 45 days to receive just the AOR
