I am glad you got your AOR. Now you only need to wait to receive the test invitation. You can start preparing yourself by reading the Discover Canada book.

Read Discover Canada at least twice.

This is a sticky thread in this forum, it has summary of the book in English and French and a lot of websites to practice sample tests.

Notes from Discover Canada and Sample tests.

There a lot of resources in Youtube, audio book, practice tests, etc.

Hope this helps.
Thanks a lot. Appreciate the help.

I am sorry I didn't provide more information than what you have, as you know, in this forum, we are all applicants, and get the information from others posting their experiences with this process, we don't provide expert advice, is just our humble opinion and observations. But you make the final decision on what course of action you want to follow, if you want to call IRCC you can do so or you can try the webform or you may decide to go to your MP. Good luck with your process and hoping you will receive good news soon. :)
I am aware of how unconditionally supportive everyone is on this forum, and hence I acknowledged it in my initial post. Wasn't looking for more information, was just fetching for opinions from people like yourself - weighing in on the next step, that I had been mulling over. I just didn't get the excessive exclamation marks used, so pointed it out. You all helping out people, with no charge etc., I maintain is incredibly kind and rare! In part I know, the process can be gruesome for some and not for others. Wishing you all the best too! :)

I understand how you feel and I am in the same situation. I have submitted my paper application on March 03rd. The processing started on April 30. Background check was updated July 02. Since then nothing. I am just waiting. It is quite frustrating I have to say, I feel left out. Hoping for the best.

Hi, I am certainly not glad to learn this, and pray for some relief for the both of us and others sharing the same fate. I am more apprehensive than frustrated. I guess, we'll have to appease ourselves with the expression: all in due time. I also find solace in the fact, that we aren't the only ones - there are still a few. Whenever the time is right, which I am praying is like sooner than soon, we might get all requests and scheduling back-to-back (in a stroke of luck). Best of luck to you!

Hi guys, I have reached out to MP to check the status of my application, they said security pass but I don't see anything related to security in my dashboard, everything is in process or not started.

its been a 4 week since I first received a ghost update and 3 week since I received second ghost update. They also confirm urgent note on my application and received RCMP. I don't know WTH they are doing with my application. I am so frustrate. No where else to vent, sorry guys.
