This link updated on 20th may: https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp

So according to this page:

Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we can’t
  • process applications normally
  • provide accurate processing times
We’re prioritizing applications from
  • Canadians returning to Canada
  • vulnerable people
  • people who perform or support essential services
This means they are not prioritizing other apps other than listed above.....?
It doesn't mean there not processing em just that other apps are not top priority hopefuly in a week or two once Nova Scotia opens more we get some action

They mentioned the other day that they're almost finished returning people to Canada. That should free up some resources.

Hello All,

I sent my Application on Feb 28th/ 2020 and it got delivered on March 3rd/2020. I am still waiting for AOR. Can anyone tell me what's the processing time to get AOR? I did not get any update once they received my application. Please help.

Thank You.

Is this a serious question? No one has any idea.

Yes It is serious question for me. It’s all about my spouse so I am just asking what is normal processing time to get AOR if it is not affected by Covid 19.
Try to check the tracker for last year, and this year before C19 and look at the AORs just to get a snap picture

^ This. Jan 2020 applications were averaging 10 days for AOR. Now....no one knows.
Right now my gut tells me sometime in next 2-3 weeks we should start seeing aors

The reason being I'm assuming when Nova Scotia opens up next week more people will be allowed in I'mmgreation processing center to speed it up

Good! They better because inland apps in mississauga are revving up full steam ahead. I just read they're getting mass updates, SA, COPR, etc, etc.
Where you read? I can't see so many updates in the trackers this month apart from few inlands.

There is even news that Inland applications are skipping interviews and going straight to COPR (due to Covid).


How about they throw Outland a sign of life! We wait for the Newfies to open up shop in their 50 cases of Covid province.
Where's that news? I have friends doing an inland application right now, and they've been waiting over 30 days with no sign of activity.
