TBH, I don't think your AOR email had anything to do with your MP. A lot of October applicants got AOR this week. It's very likely just a coincidence.Please Update
Application sent 25th Oct, 2017
Application Received 27th Oct 2017
AOR 10th January 2018
So i contacted my MP on 20th December, as there was no AOR even after 8 weeks. He told me to send all my details. I did.
On 29th of December, he forwarded me a reply he got from IRCC saying that they don't have my details in the system.
I replied to my MP that my file was received by Someone called Mike, (Tracking number was communicated to MP)
Received an Out of office reply from MP that he is on vacation and will be back on 8th of January. I,however reprinted and prepared another application to resend. Which i didnt, i decided to wait till 8th.
On January 3rd i received an email from Secretary of MP, she said that she have told IRCC to look into my matter again.
On January 8th i received an email from Secretary, enclosing a reply from IRCC, saying that they can confirm that application was received on Oct 27th 2017. Secretary told IRCC to explain why there was no AOR sent to applicant? She gave them 10 days, she forwarded same email to me.
On 10th of January, at 10:37PM, i received an AOR.
Special thanks to my MP and his Secretary.
Adding you to the sheet. Can you share your location, physical presence days, and application type (single or family) ?
