Based on the pace at which October applicants in the general spreadsheet are receiving AORs, it is unlikely that the 4-6 weeks timeline is going to be maintained when processing the post 10/11 applications. At the moment we are at 26% of applications AOR'd. Considering that in previous months the median time to receive the AOR was around 36-38 days, it would mean that in the next 10 days the IRCC will have to process roughly another 25% of applications in order to maintain the pace. I don't see that happening.
My gut feeling is that the average time to receive the AOR will be 6-8 weeks.

Well, some people were saying that bill c6 would be implemented in January 2018 and processing would take 2-4 years... I'm sure they are now in shock to see people receiving AORs in less than 3 weeks.

your application has been reviewed and has met basic eligibility, IRCC will invite you to a knowledge test, interview and/or
