File was processed in Ghana. Timeline is in my profile. We had a delay because they requested additional medical testing for which the results weren’t available for 8 weeks and then had to follow up with another chest X-ray. Passport has been in their possession since early December.

Oh that’s a new abbreviation since I was on here in 2017. ADR is most popularly “Alternative Dispute Resolution”, which is the name of a very stressful meeting where you may have a chance to win an appeal without going to full hearing. Anybody who has been through an appeal process will be...

I’m a little confused - ADR is part of the appeal process after your application has been refused. AOR is “acknowledgement of receipt”, which should happen early in the application process. Not sure what they’re doing over there in Accra. We are waiting for a passport back...

Doing additional medical testing this week as requested by CIC. Doctor said the results will take 7-10 weeks ☹️. Hope the whole processing doesn’t get paused waiting for this?

The one I found on the CIC website is CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca I also uploaded the documents using the webform.
