Congrats!!! did you receive the approval email for your application or is it only visible on the CIC website? ( no email and have to log in to see it?)
Both.. I received email from cic ottawa..then in few mins the status changed to approved in the portal and our copr numbers showed up in the middle grid and at the bottom 2 attachments(my copr and my spouse’s copr) with the name ‘other’ were available to download.

Many Congratulations. looks like August is being processed in absolute full flow. I am also August 09 AOR and got File approved on 17th March. But for me there is no COPR attached but instead had the numbers of the documents listed out for me, my spouse and son. For you which section is the COPR attached? just to ensure i am also looking at the right place..

Ah. Thanks. For me only the middle grid is populated with COPR numbers, UCI and expiry dates. The "Messages about your application" still isn't updated with the pdf. Its so funny how many different approaches they take. Will wait for COPR email now.

AOR 22 august, the last update regarding medical clearance was on 17 January and biometric fees were refunded in Feb.

No updates after that. I have raised the web form multiple times asking the question regarding the background and eligibility pass but the only response is an application in progress. How to know that my file is in which office like Ottawa or where ??? All my friends in Toronto with AOR of late August got their COPR. I am in Vancouver, is there any processing variation based on Provinces? Thanks in advance.
