Thank you,
Which number you called ?

This is something new which I heard...Else, people say it takes around 40 - 60 days to get AOR1 in an email..

Does this means they verified all documents of your application ?

Are you able to see the status on ECAS page ?

As the agent mentioned they open my application and go through all my documents once but still need to check it again for a permanent application number. i think they check the documents more than one time by different people before sending your AOR.

I do not have that much of experience about CIC applications, i just quoted what the Callcenter agent told me.

Also, you can not check the status or link your application until you have the permeant application number.

I will give them a call next week and see what happened.

I was able to talk to agent...he confirmed that application is received and verified the details in application...
But he said checks are in progress to confirm its a "complete" application...Right Now, it's a temporary application...
He cannot give me any timelines when I will get the AOR in email..

So, next step is to wait for a final AOR email...

Sounds good new they start progress your application, usually take 6-8 weeks until they send the AOR and sometime more or less because its depend on the person, every applicant have different situation, i hope we will hear back from them soon.

when did they receive your application ?

Mine was also delivered on the 7th, so will be watching to see what happens.

I know the period to get the AOR seems to be 60 days or so ... which seems interminably long. Amazing they don't provide some acknowledgement of receipt that's just that, 'we got your package.' Most worried of course it will be sent back.
I got my number in 45 days but then the next steps moved very fast. We are now doing the medical and have been advised our application was sent to the Visa office for further review. Now we wait again. Good luck and try not to worry.

What is the AOR1 date(date you received email) of acceptance ?
