I have a friend who had a terrible experience when he applied for PR. He waited one year before he went to his MP to help him locate his application. IRCC couldn't provide an explanation why his application was lost and couldn't be processed for an entire year.

At the time when my friend thought he's about to receive his PR card, IRCC simply told him we didn't receive your application, it took him one year to wake up and pursue the matter seriously and he was in serious , extremely serious trouble back then. Now he's applying for Citizenship and planning not to repeat the same mistake. He's actively following through his application. This is an example of how reckless it can get at IRCC. They receive tens of thousands of applications, and you don't want them to loose some, unbelievable. they're as much human as anyone else. think about it.

I had to wait for an year for my medical test, during PR filing. Almost 2 months now since they received my Citizenship application. No AOR yet.

Guys i just checked my ECAS. What is this means?

  1. We sent you correspondence on December 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.

Very likely just a fingerprint request.

it'll cost them a lot of money
They sure know what percentage of applications are being returned, they could estimate the cost of sending them back by a traceable method (can't be more than $10-$15 top) and add that cost to the application fee. $630 or $640 would not make a huge difference, but the reassurance of not losing packages containing EVERY personal information of some applicant would be well worth it.

If that's the first message, before seeing AOR, could that be something else, maybe? Most that we've seen that had FP requests got the message after AOR, no?

I think that "1" bullet point is a typo. According to the sheet, @wins26 got AOR on Nov 09, and IP on Nov 22.

I already did and they asked him to wait for another month.
Getting sick of waiting. Almost 65 days till now after two applications sent and no AOR nor the applications back. I even contacted Canada Post to open an investigation and those ones told me to wait till the end of December.
Everyone cannot give you an answer about your application; if it is returned or lost by them. They do not like to get responsible for this.
I will wait until next week then I will reapply.
