Some people in the google docs share that they waited 30 days. Thats an outlier but usually anywhere between 12 and 18 days is expected
Yeah, i was looking at January, February and March and i saw 20 something days to be the one that were late late. I submitted on 8th so 16 days already that's what i said that if it didn't come by the end of this week (20days) most likely it's coming back for me because there were a lot of pre PR days, or maybe they are confirming those days.
God knows better I'm gonna call them next Monday if it didn't come by then

AOR Received.
11-09-2020
LANDED..........
27-04-2022
And in feb group i saw someone who got there AOR after a month and only after raising a webform
There could be different things and factors involved. There are cases when nobody can tell the real reason why AOR is not coming. For example, my wife waited 3 months to get the AOR last year and there was no reason mentioned to her why she had to wait for the AOR that much time.
People recommend calling the IRCC after you notice that all your same month submission peers got the AOR AND IRCC site (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-status.html) shows they started processing applications submitted after your date:
Wait until you receive your AOR
Last updated: March 24, 2025
You can only check your application status after you receive your AOR letter or email.
We’re now sending AOR letters or emails for paper and online applications received
the week of February 28, 2025
If you still haven’t received your AOR, your application may be
  • incomplete and on its way back to you, or
  • going through further review before we start processing it

In Progress Electronic Case Application Status - did you get a separate email about it with an invitation to create an account on tracker?
I believe so?
I have a update on the 21st of March that changed my test to in progress.
Then I received an email with details about the test today at 12PM.

So, it seems you didn't get a separate email to create an account on tracker. So, didn't I.

Btw, do you get a 'garbage' email from IRCC the day before the next email relevant to the citizenship application? Every time I get something about Express Entry or similar irrelevant before the application status update.

No I have not been invited to the tracker yet. I just created an account.
Negative, I only tend to get relevant stuff. no spam.
