Don't worry, I'm noticing that March AORs are taking a longer time than average compared to those who submitted their applications in Jan/Feb 2025. The IRCC website says they're processing AORs for applications received in the week of Feb 28th, so technically, you can't even call IRCC and ask...

Yes, but they're from the period after I became a PR. I didn't provide translation for them.

Yes, I attached all documents with one 1 letter of explanation so it was counted as one file. I attached a copy of my entire passport as another file.

Yeah, don't worry be as thorough as possible with your proof and LOE. They'll accept your application and send AOR.

I think you should just reapply because your payment receipt was never used and it isn't attached to any application. IRCC is a mess.

No, the visitor record is to extend the visit visa if you stay beyond 6 months. It makes sure I was never out of status in Canada before I became a PR. In my case, it was important to provide proof that I applied to extend my visitor status and that it was approved. This shows that I was never...

Hi, I attached the following: 1. Copy of visit visa 2. Copy of my entry stamp by CBSA when I first entered Canada 3. Boarding passes showing the dates I entered Canada 4. My visitor record application confirmation which shows I applied for it before going out of status 5. My approved visitor...

Application resubmission. The original application was submitted on Feb 20th, 2025 and returned on March 13th, 2025. Type: Online application Location: Mississauga, ON Physical Presence Days: 1103 Application: Single Application sent: March 13, 2025 Delivered: March 13, 2025 AOR: Pending Test...

@vnexpress @tanjid12 Quick update - My application from Feb 20th was returned today because they're saying they can't verify my physical presence before I became a PR. I will attach all relevant documents and resubmit it. If you're also using temporary resident days and were on maintained status...

Double-check all your documents, did you accidentally upload someone else's doc? Maybe a driver's license, health card or anything like that? My sympathies are with you. IRCC is a highly incompetent department, they told me they 'lost' my online application in the system, lol.

Same here. I called them and they said my application isn't in the system even though I got a submission confirmation email + portal confirmation. I think my online application got lost in their system and I'll have to reapply. Lol incompetent IRCC as usual. Were they at least able to find your...

Would there be any reason why they lose an application? The agent is telling me to wait for one week. I'm not sure if I should do that or just go ahead and reapply.

This post is about a physical application which can understandably get lost. My spousal sponsorship application was lost in CPC-S for a year during the pandemic but I can't wrap my head around how IRCC can lose an 'online' application. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Hello members, I submitted my online citizenship application on February 20th and noticed that others who applied around the same time have already received their AORs and their website says they're now processing AORs for citizenship applications submitted on the week of Feb 21st. I called...

Anyone from Feb 20th who still hasn't received AOR?

Yeah, this isn't normal. You should've received the AOR by now. Please call IRCC and ask them to track your file. I'm Feb 20th and haven't received AOR. If I don't get it this week, I'll call them.

Well, I called IRCC and they said maintained/implied status days do count as half-days for citizenship purposes. I'm relying on them so fingers crossed.

Yeah, I was on maintained/implied status after submitting a visitor record application which was eventually approved.

Thank you so much. My main concern is the possibility of my application getting returned for the following reason: In our record we cannot confirm your time in Canada before you become a permanent resident. I thought it would be straightforward for IRCC to verify this time based on CBSA...

I should’ve known IRCC wouldn’t be the most straightforward department to deal with. I applied for my citizenship online this month and included my visitor visa days to meet the physical presence requirement. People who applied around the same time as me have already started receiving their...
