    <<<<<<<<<< June AOR 2023 Thread >>>>>>>>>>

    That's a good point. The temporary public policy for inland CEC applicants is not a requirement, and IRCC may still request that you provide a medical exam. It is always a good idea to confirm with IRCC about your case. I hope that everything works out for you.

    Yes, that's right. The AOR is the acknowledgement of receipt, and it is the first official document that you will receive from IRCC.

    <<<<<<<<<< June AOR 2023 Thread >>>>>>>>>>

    I see. Yes, the AOR is the official document that confirms that IRCC has received your application and begun processing it. It sounds like you may have made a mistake by doing an upfront medical exam when you were exempt from doing one. IRCC has a temporary public policy in place that exempts...

    I agree with you that the government's immigration targets don't seem to be meeting up with the infrastructure needs of the country.
