The whole process seems very random, we have people from May 27th receiving ecas whereas some are waiting from end of April or 1st week of May. You can also see additional documents being requested when no ecas is available, which means a CO is reviewing the application. So far doesn't validate the FIFO

If you didn’t send yet , please do it ASAP, not only ask this question, if Canada post delay the mail, you are done.

Question: What does ‘AOR’ mean?
Answer: AOR is an acronym that stands for the term “Acknowledgment Of Receipt”. An AOR indicates that the Canadian consulate, embassy, or high commission, has received your application for permanent residency and has issued a case file number for the application submitted. The length of time it takes for an individual to receive an AOR varies with the specific visa processing office the application was initially submitted to.
As per CIC.GC.CA

What happens after I send in my application?
If you’re applying for permanent residence or to sponsor a family member
- review your application to make sure it’s complete
- once you pay the biometric fee, send you or your family member a letter that tells you how to give your biometrics (if applicable)
- receive and review your or your family member’s biometrics after you have given them at a collection point
- decide if you’re eligible to sponsor
- decide if you’re eligible to apply to become a permanent resident of Canada
- tell you when we start processing your application,
- tell you how to get a medical exam, if you didn’t get one before sending in your application
- do a security screening to make sure all applicants don’t pose a risk to the safety and security of Canadians
- decide if you need to go to an interview
- tell you of the decision we make on your application

Yes, thanks for the concern, but I am row 71 in tracker. I was wondering if there is anyone who is gong to send today...Cuz I would like to salute them...
Well , if i was in your place i would call again the call centre and if the same reply then , to be on safe side send again the whole application .
his aged locked when they receive your application regardless when they open it.
No idea, I was hoping seniors and experts can shed some light. Yes, I agree, it should've been LVO requests it at a later stage based on previous years. If I have to take an educated guess, it's for applicants who're already in Canada? They want to get the requested docs upfront for smoother processing later on? On the other hand, I assume sponsorship portion should be safe otherwise they won't move forward to applicant's docs.
@JamesYoyo I'm on the same boat with you except I don't need a resume. Just to give a friendly reminder that you do not need to provide a PCC for Canada, only for countries that are not Canada. It says on IRCC website and I also verified this with a call centre agent. A couple of other friends who applied before also advised the same. You're more than welcomed to double check yourself and let me know otherwise.
Today finally I was able to link my application, everything the same exceptHi All,
I am new to this forum and wanted to know if everyone who was able to add their application to their GC Key account is seeing the same details or this is based on case to case.
is this standard or differs case to case
