No. Proof of funds are usually required during the provincial nomination stage. It's not among the required documents in the federal stage of PNP Non-EE stream. Check the documents checklist.
I think they extended the situation until the end of March, not sure about it. In this case you may consider waiting a bit to see if they accept the old one or require you a new one.
Congrats! It depends, some are asked immediately or a day or two after AOR, and some take months.
My personal suggestion: Do an upfront medical exam and send it via webform since you have AOR.
My friend just got AOR today:
AR: May 15, 2021
AOR: March 12, 2022
No medical request yet.
MPNP paper-based inland with one inland dependent.
Application number starts with: 0045, but I don't know if it's of any use.
I don't think that's correct. Feb 2021 and a few March 2021 AR people are getting AOR these days. The online non-EE portal started in Apr 2021 so I think it will take a few more months to get to online applicants.
I can click on the "View my applications" button, where it takes me to another page showing the submission date and "submitted" status, but the "view" button is disabled.
