3-4 days. Could be longer during busy times like Christmas or when Canada Post is working at reduced capacity like COVID.Does anyone know how long a returned application takes on average to get to the applicant? Just wondering if an application is returned, how long before you get it in the mail?
Thank you. Really scary honestly and I am tried of the waiting game; application received since February and all we hear is cricket noise.3-4 days. Could be longer during busy times like Christmas or when Canada Post is working at reduced capacity like COVID.
Yep just wait and wait and wait and wait and wait .......................What can we do but wait? It's so unfair that applications are not processed on FCFS basis but random. I didn't know IRCC can get so disorganize in their work structure.
does this mean that test dates would be decided baaed on AOR date and not App received date?Yep just wait and wait and wait and wait and wait .......................
FCFS is a logical and simple process but why would they follow that? Disorganized and chaos is the best way to work which seems to be the business goal of IRCC. They are on May AORs now I think and I won't be surprised if they start June and then July and then August and so on while older months keep counting the stars in the sky.
If I were you, I would have sent another application... Cost of resending the application is still less than waiting for an year...Thank you. Really scary honestly and I am tried of the waiting game; application received since February and all we hear is cricket noise.
Once your application moves from AOR to In Process, that means that it gets sent to your local IRCC office. They are the ones who will schedule your test. As such, this will depend on how local offices will be handling this once we start seeing applications move to In Process and tests re-start (as I understand that they're just not scheduling new tests right now, only re-tests). Before covid, it was probably based on when they received each application. With these delays, however, it is possible that they will schedule them based on the month people applied when the time comes.does this mean that test dates would be decided baaed on AOR date and not App received date?
Can MPs really do anything, though? They don't seem to have any pull in IRCC whatsoeverCanada Post with tracking. The day you mail the application, it starts the process and you need to keep the mailing receipt, just for your own peace of mind. And if you need to request help from your MP.
MPs from my experience are 99.9% useless in this case.Can MPs really do anything, though? They don't seem to have any pull in IRCC whatsoever
I really hope IP is not based on AOR dates but on App sent dates. If it is not, it will be unfair to people who are still waiting for AOR let alone IP. It is already unfair as it is, and this will our more oil in the fire.If I were you, I would have sent another application... Cost of resending the application is still less than waiting for an year...
I agree. We are not in numbers to influence an election outcome.MPs from my experience are 99.9% useless in this case.
Does the location of applicant has any weight ? I guess large jurisdictions with more applicants take longer time. This must be a logical reasoning. Any feed back ???https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-status.html
your status will be available after you have received the AOR
No idea at all, we are not hearing from provinces with zero or less covid cases...Does the location of applicant has any weight ? I guess large jurisdictions with more applicants take longer time. This must be a logical reasoning. Any feed back ???
Pankaj, You're Very fortunate/lucky to have luxury of time! Not everyone in the similar situation Unfortunately..Still no AOR.
App delivered March 6.
I rather have my application returned and money refunded than being stuck in a limbo.
I would prefer to apply again once covid situations gets better.
