What stage is your application currently at? If you have already received AOR-2 (notification of file transfer to the visa office), that email/letter would contain the address of the visa office.

I'm guessing a lot depends on the complexity of each case, e.g. the amount of proof, the difficulty of putting the puzzle together into what would (or would not) look like a cohesive relationship story etc. You could see it as forensics of its own kind. However, given the ridiculously low number...

Congratulations on that, annakon! - It was a pretty lengthy process for ya, but what really matters is that it's finally over. Yay! Welcome to Canada! ;D

Glad to hear your file is moving along. As to whether that means no interview, I really wouldn't want to disappoint you here, but I would not be making that assumption because there have been many cases where people would attend an interview and be issued a visa on the spot. Which means a...

Congratulations on that! - Best of everything in Canada ;)

Gotchya. So, that would be roughly November for us then.

Thanks for confirming. Just curious, - how soon after your file got transferred did they request the extra info?

Hi Sous02, Are you referring here to form 5669 (Schedule A - Background/Declaration), paragraph 8 (Personal History)? It reads "Provide the details of your personal history since the age of 18, or the past 10 years, whichever is most recent". I guess we too might be getting a request for...

Although the guide says it is not required, we still included that form as an extra proof of relationship. But in order to have it properly notarized, we've had to travel to Poland together (we're both in Belarus) and attend at the embassy, as it was the simplest and nearest notary service...

Hi buttercam, Are you 100% confident that you won't be invited to attend an interview at the respective VO overseas? AOR2 only means that your application for permanent residence has been received by the VO, but doesn't automatically guarantee anything.

Hi folks, Is there anyone out there who has admin rights for the spreadsheet? I would like to fix conditional formatting to ensure consistent fill colours depending on application status, as it seems to be messed up.

Hi "just a square", I've been trying to find a 2016 spreadsheet for Warsaw, but to no avail. The only one out there is for 2015, however it appears to have been stale for months and only contains one entry for 2016. Though you might still find it useful for checking processing times...

Received AOR2 from the Warsaw VO today. App received by CPC-M on June 3. AOR1 - June 22 SA - Aug 2 AOR2 - Aug 9 Spreadsheet updated.

Thanks newbee1990. I'm now trying to locate a shared spreadsheet used for tracking all cases across all VO-s and application dates. I think there used to be one a while back, but I have since lost the link. (Anybody have it?) It would be very nice to have a centralized place where one could...

Received our SA today by email! 8) Application was received by CPC Mississauga on June 3, so that makes it 60 days. I'm guessing it would've arrived a bit sooner if not for the 2 holidays in between.

Yeah, I've had these thoughts myself, as I'm in the same boat.

I guess it's a hit and miss too, as I'm unable to link our application to MyCIC. Tried all sorts of combinations, i.e. my spouse's info vs. mine etc. - no dice. Has anyone else been having issues registering there?

Holy! What was the weight of your package then? :) We too applied as common-law, and chose to be picky as to what to include for evidence. Having lived together for about 3 years results in a pile of stuff ;D

Just received my AOR1 by email! The package was delivered to Mississauga on June 3, so that makes it 19 days! Hope they're speeding up all the other stages as well. ;)

Congrats! I'm expecting mine tomorrow :)
