All AORs received in April 2015, lets connect here and share updates & timelines

[nuno1313]

A notice (Electronic receipt of APR) is automatically issued to the applicants on receipt of their electronic application submission. This notice indicates the following: “Your application is being checked to determine whether it meets the requirements of a complete application pursuant to section 10 and section 12.01 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.”


A letter (Acknowledgement of Receipt) is issued to the applicants once their application has passed a completeness check. This letter indicates the following: “CIC has reviewed your application and determined that it meets the requirements of a complete application as described in section 10 and section 12.01 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.”

-- MAJOR UPDATE that some might find comforting [or not] --

Just had a nice long conversation with a CIC call centre agent. Here's a summary.

Despite ministerial instructions ordering CIC to issue a R10 notice [2nd AOR] "upfront", the agent admitted CIC has a backlog.
The agent totally agrees that taking 4 months to reject a single case is absurd especially when ministerial instructions rushes them to process cases entirely within a total of 6 months [counting from AOR date]. However, CIC recently gave them clear new instructions : if an applicant's case doesn't receive a R10 notice within 18 weeks [counting from the AOR date], said applicant is AUTHORIZED to call CIC and CIC agents are then AUTHORIZED to look into the applicant's case, provide individual information, and if no R10 notice is to be found in the applicant's GCMS notes, then CIC agents WILL leave an urgent note inside the applicant's case to rush the processing office into reviewing said case eligibility ASAP.

Basically, my case has an AOR dated April 8.
CIC encouraged me to call back on August 12, so they can specifically check the status of my case and provide info on the R10 notice [and if my case has any missing document or if it has simply been rejected].

FINALLY, an agent who's willing to be as helpful as she's authorized to, AND gives clear instructions, AND understands one's frustration

I'm thinking that #2 is quite unlikely. CIC isn't a teen-aged girl

#3 might be the scenario that makes the most sense. They might also be waiting until after the Civic Holiday. So August 4 for PPR please, CIC!!

Yampower Yampower Yampower! Please don't preempt CIC. Don't predict any date. They're watching this thread. Don't provoke them. Lol!!!

LOL!! I really don't think it matters. PPR could even come tomorrow or Thursday. The bad part for me is that Jamaica has Independence Day (public holiday) on August 6 so that takes away another day.

Interesting. Did they agent tell you if your file has.moved to Ottawa VO? They normally tell this if you have a genuine reason to want to raise a CSE and want to know where your app is. And if your app is in Ottawa VO, you are through R10.
