If you get any update please tell
For sure, I'll post it here. I think we'll wait it out till the end of this month and call them again...I don't know whatour options are because it would be a sigh of relief if we can at least get a temp number!!!

FINALLY!!!! My partner (the PA) received the biometrics letter today. We still don't have AOR1 or SA but I'll take this as a win. I take it this means that they are now processing our application?
Congrats! My sponsor approval and AoR came a day later, and medical check request a week after that. You should be able to link your application on gckey now.

I got my MP to reach out back in August and they were able to confirm that our documents were received on March 13/20. We were assigned a UCI number and temp application number. Received Biometrics today, still awaiting AOR1 and SA.
Don't be too worried about the AOR letter, by getting the BIL you know they have started processing your app. They don't seem to be following the normal procedures they did pre-covid.

Hi Everyone. We received AOR1 on 15th August 2020 and never heard from CIC after that. No biometrics letter, No sponsor Approval etc. Is this normal?

Application received at the VO it has been transferred to. It will go back to in-process once they start working on it.

Anyone know what else I can do to login to ecas. I’ve tried so many combinations but it doesn’t work. I used the sponsors details. For the type of ID do I use application number or receipt number for the sponsor.
more how do you guys login?

Can you get into gckey?

I was never able to get into ECAS but gckey no problem once applicaiton was in the system (i.e. after aor1/biometrics).

Others have called IRCC to get help, it's not impossible that there's a key bit of info that doesn't match. I never bothered though.

Yes GCKEY works just fine.
