Hi! Are there any July last week-august 1st week applicants here who reached cic to asked regarding the updates of AOR? It seems like 2weeks have been skipped. Thank you..
I got to speak to a representative and got some information with regards to my application.
At first he asked me (Sponsor) my UCI number and verified my local address, phone number and email address. Then he put me on hold to check and track my application. After about 5 minutes, he responded back saying the application is in the system but it has only been assigned a temporary status and is in the pool of applications to be processed. He also said that the IRCC will get to the file but there are a lot of factors that affect as to how long it might take such as history of the sponsor in Canada, travel history, employment etc..
I asked him if the stage of a file being returned( for various reasons such as missing signature) happens before it is assigned a temporary number. And he replied back saying if the file was returned he would not have been able to track it in his system. So I guess this gives me a little relief that they have not returned my application.
Guess just have to wait for an AOR1 and some luck as they applications from pool are assigned to different agents from different time frame.
