@ALL Hi, In which currency would you suggest paying RPRF, CAD$490 (bank draft) or Php19,900 (manager's cheque)? Although the website says it's advisable to pay in CAD$ due to currency fluctuation. Because if I opt to pay in CAD$, the cheque's funds has to come from The Bank of Nova Scotia as...

Me too... I hope we'll receive sooner or later the updates. Just done with my medicals this month though. Thanks! -pangandoy

@ ching17 Did you receive request for RPRF along with your MR? What does your ecas say now? Thanks! :) -pangandoy

Overjoyed! :D Finally got my long awaited AOR. I received it just today December 8, at exactly 9:30 PM (PHT) It stated that my DD was encashed on 17 November 2012. Thanks! :) -pangandoy

@Nyla anum Sorry if I must have got you confused too. Because my post that started our conversation was about AOR from CIO (Centralized Intake Office). I specifically stated the letters "CIO"..... Anyway, I'm pretty sure you'll receive you AOR from BIQ sooner or later. Thanks. -pangandoy

@TRUONGAN haha you mean BPI? by the way, I just called The Bank of Nova Scotia in Toronto.... The lady on the phone was very helpful, she tried every means she could to track my DD. Though no luck. But, I kinda felt ok talking to her. :) She was really nice. She too, can't tell why BPI...

@ TRUONGAN Yeah, I wish they could track it that fast too. It's BPI by the way and their bank partner is The Bank of Nova Scotia. I have also tried calling their customer service before but, they too cannot trace the DD. Agent told me that only the local branch where I purchased it can...

@lahorimunda I don't have any information as to the status of my demand draft (DD). I went to the bank already, the officer in-charged told me that they can verify if it has been encashed after 4 weeks. I had requested them before to check on it, but that same bank officer refused, because...

Looks like I'm the only one left waiting for AOR.

@ Nyla anum Hi, You got me confused. Are you referring to CIO ( for Permanent Residency application) or BIQ ( for Certificat de sélection du Québec application)? Thanks. -pangandoy

@Nyla anum Hi, Right.... However, it's been almost 11 weeks now. Isn't it long enough for CIO to check on the application, encash DD or charge credit card, etc.? I appreciate you being patient. But, you deserve to receive an AOR or any feedback from CIO by now. Did you try to contact them...

Hi sarayu, Sorry, that happened to you. Yes, I included my live birth in my application. I checked the photocopy of my demand draft (DD) and it's in Canadian, "Receiver General for Canada"; "CAD550"; there are two signatories of the bank's two officers on the DD. Their bank partner is Nova...

I haven't received my AOR since it was delivered to CIO last 11 October 2012. Different scenarios are running in my head right now. At first, I assumed my application is being returned due to probably some errors on the form when I filled them out. I went to the post office today and no post...

@ NAFIZA AHMED It's hard to say, since base on this thread half are still waiting for their AORs. On other threads I've read that there are even September 2012 applicants to CIO who hasn't got AORs as well. There's still a month more to go, I remain hopeful though. Just my thought, CIO...

@hardworkingpk Cheers! :) That's quite a relief for you there. Thanks. -pangandoy

@ NAFIZA AHMED Right, it differs. But hope for just 10 days duration. :) Well, who doesn't want to receive AOR asap..... hehe It's nice to see that as of November 2012, 50% of October 2012 applicants to CIO received their AORs already. Thanks. -pangandoy

@ NAFIZA AHMED Hi NAFIZA AHMED, Thanks for updating. Expecting your AOR next week maybe or the following. :) You must be excited, huh. ;D @ deepakkatoch I wish I could answer your query. Are you currently in Canada? But, what did you put in your IMM0008 form under the field...

@ withhappy What a good news you have there to start your December. :) Anyone else got his AOR this week? Thanks. -pangandoy

@ TRUONGAN You're right. Now, there's no way I can get to speak with CIO's representative. I know that before it was possible even if I'm outside Canada by using 1 613 944 000, then options 1 and 2 before the call will be directed to 1 888 242 2100. Too bad nothing works now. <sigh> Yes, I'm...

@mcsvizag Hey, Good thing you know that you had your payment accepted. So, expect your AOR sooner or later. :) I feel helpless that my bank cannot immediately verify if my DD has been encashed, because it will take 2 weeks for them to do that. ...and I even need to provide them a request...
