Assuming they'll hold the second application and not the first one, if you do somehow get AOR for the first one .. should be fine I would think. Won't speed up the process though. But I guess you re-applied because you think the first application is lost, right ?
I attached a letter explaining what the agent at call center told me, which, at least, makes it reasonable to IRCC that my first application is returned for sure. Should I get AOR, which is unlikely to happen, I can just inform them to ignore the second one. Both applications have the same fee receipt. Therefore, one may not say there are two valid applications. It's One payment for One application. One application's completeness invalidates the other's.
I would like to emphasize that reapply is not about speeding up instead it's about buying some insurance for your path to citizenship.
In fact, it will cause more delay in future as CIC's staff are the same and will have to handle more application than necessary.....
Thank you for sharing the information, hopefully some will listen to you.
It can be frustrating, especially when you see someone that applied after you receive AOR. However, as it has been explained several times here, there is no need to worry. I am sure a lot of people that posted their frustrations here in the past have received their AOR and that's why they are no longer here. If your application was delivered, then yours will come.
I am so happy for you, thanks for sharing your conversation with CIC as well.
What's with all the up comments? No one has a magic ball and very few people are going to support your choices of sending in another application so early. In case you haven't realized, no one form Nov has received AOR. There was huge demand last month and IRCC are currently working their way through the applications.
