Application received is just when people know their packet was delivered. AOR is when they actually acknowledge your application and send you a receipt.

Since it seems like it's likely only going to be a few weeks, I'm going to wait. There's a tiny chance I fixed the form before I printed it, but, didn't save it. My spouse and I both looked through everything a couple times. Either of us should have easily spotted the mistake. I reprinted a...

I had submitted Form 5406 online because I thought I forgot the city and zipcode for my brother. Anyhow, I finally got an email back and they said that they can't attach that document, that I would just have to send it again after it's rejected. Hopefully I corrected that form before I sent it...

I'm really excited about that- at least if I screwed up my application I won't find out 8 months from now. I sent in a replacement form for something I thought I goofed- But, I cannot imagine that I would have sent it out with a typo in it to begin with since the typo was my brother's address...

Exciting stuff! Well, I bet it helps that there are a lot less applicants after April. The sheets get a whole lot shorter once you start looking at the summer months. I mean, may not be representative of the whole, but, still if the sheets here are any indication, there were a lot less...

I uploaded mine without a number, I entered a bunch of other information and it let me do it. Probably the wrong way to do it though, so I wouldn't follow what I did.. lol

Oh, it hasn't been returned yet, I'm just worried that it will be 5 months from now when they finally review it and see the missing information and I'll have to start all over. I submitted the replacement form online, but, not sure if that actually works or not.

It's a thought- I might do that next weekend. I did submit the form online, but, I don't know if that will catch up with the original packet or not. I see all kinds of posts where people post that they've done that- but, even with a bunch of google searching I can't find anyone saying whether or...

I was looking through my forms and realized that I left off my brother's city and zipcode on form 5406. UGH! I'm so annoyed with myself. I printed it, signed it, scanned it and then submitted it online even though I don't have a UCI or any other number. My file is still going to get returned...

Oh, I know, I did too. I was just excited that they might have started the whole temporary receipt process for outland that they started for inland. Months of inland applications got temporary AOR's over a couple week period back towards the end of September. I was just hopeful they were rolling...

Before all the outland people get excited, Kial is an inland applicant from September, not an outland. Unfortunately the biometric email doesn't seem to mean that it's checked yet for inland applications. Official AOR comes later- but, they seem to have started a new process for inland where...

I would suggest continuing to wait for outland. Since you are in March, you are in the group they are processing AOR's for now. People from January and February are getting their COPR. I mean, I'm no fortune-teller, but, I think if you were very lucky, you could see your COPR in under three...

I haven't seen any yet for outland. Take a look at the inland sheets though, those are pretty promising. It looks like they suddenly started issuing temporary file numbers via email for inland candidates and pretty quickly got caught up on scanning them in. It looks like September inland already...

If you check out the inland ones, it's all mostly happened in the last couple weeks. It could just be that Nova Scotia is a couple weeks behind in whatever changed in the process. They aren't actually checking the applications for completeness, just scanning them in and sending a temporary file...

Just from tracking delivery- it will likely be many months before you get the official receipt, the AOR1. They are still working on March for outland applications. They've started doing something interesting with inland applications and sending an initial receipt pretty quickly with a temporary...

EH, that's fine though. I think most of us were expecting worse when we applied. I was thinking 12-18 months. I mean, obviously I hope for everyone else that it is faster, but, for me 8 months would be fine. I'm trying to finish qualifying for my CPA before moving to Canada, I met education...

The other issue is that we don't know how Covid impacted application numbers. We don't know if it's the typical amount of applications being received or if they received significantly more or less applications due to Covid. They were expecting around 70,000 spousal/dependent child applications...

What I'm really curious about is how that 49,000 compares to the current backlog. Obviously, from about the last half of February, there are a ton of files that have had almost nothing done with them. I believe they were anticipating around 70,000 spouse/dependent child applications for the...

Just thought I would share in the event someone hasn't seen it yet. :) https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2020/09/ircc-speeding-up-processing-for-spousal-applications.html News release September 24, 2020—Ottawa—Today, the Honourable Marco E. L. Mendicino, Minister of...

Maybe it's just bad timing- but when I searched there were maybe 5 jobs in Ontario doing the kind of thing I do AND they wanted something crazy like 5-7 years of experience. My work history is all in general ledger departments and most of the jobs seem to be audit or client taxation.
