Hi,

In what cases do they ask for FP?!
I was told by the lawyer that took them that it's either

- random
- your name matches somebody convicted of a crime in Canada
- you answered yes to one of the questions in the form that asks about criminality

I believe mine were requested randomly. It's $50 + HST. I used CII Fingerprinting Services Inc. very quick and professional.

Hi All,

My application was received by CIC on 23 Aug, 2018. I haven't yet received AOR till date, is this normal? (A friend of mine who sent his application a week later already received his AOR 2 weeks back)
Can I anyway check my application status by calling CIC or any other way? Please let me know
I cannot see an entry on ECAS as well.

Thank you,

I definitely suggest you to fill web form and submit for the application status. It was helped me. I filled it and submitted on 26th, I received AOR yesterday and I see ECAS status today.

I did the same you did, i send them a web form. They told me that the officer i call on nov 21 2018 take a proper action on my application sending inquiry to Nova scotia. They said if i did not receive a decision before February 21 2019 i should call them or send webform. That's not fair, application has been received since Aug 23rd. Nd i need to be a citizen for the career am pursuing.

I think its coincidence. It doesnt work that way for everyone. My family applied last year and got AOR a couple of days after sending a web form. That didn't work for me.

It is discouraging when a Sept 25 applicant gets AOR and August applicants are still waiting. I take consolation in the fact that there are still quite a number of people who applied before August 24 but are also waiting. This is similar to when I applied for PR. I was among the 'forgotten Buffalo applicants'. We waited for years whilst others who applied over a year later got theirs within 6 months. Such is life :)
