Any solution for a long wait for family sponsorship AOR?

Hi. I am a Canadian permanent resident and applied for child sponsorship for my daughter. I submitted my application on July 24, but have not received AOR email until now. The status on the official website is stuck at SUBMITTED. I noticed that the common length of time to receive an AOR in the pr tracker sheet is around two months.
In a case like this, what should I do to see if anything is wrong, like contacting IRCC? Or just wait?

Up 3 months isn’t something unusual
and it’s not stuck on submitted - it won’t ever change unless returned due to error

Thanks for the info, looks like I'll need to keep waiting.
Since I submitted my application, the estimated time for the whole process of receiving PR on IRCC official website (counting from the time after SUBMIT, and updating about weekly) is getting shorter. And most of the people who updated on pr tracker at the same time as me received the AOR. That‘s the reason why I am guessing if there is something wrong with my application.
Do you have any idea how long the maximum length of time to receive an AOR reaches?

Just be patient and don't overthink the situation. You have to wait just like everyone else. Don't rely on the published processing time. It can take longer or shorter. Waiting 2–4 months for AOR is within the normal.

They will let you know if anything wrong with your application.

If you would like to have a piece of mind, perhaps try giving them a call but expect long wait times... Good luck.

Thank you for the reply and help. I think maybe I should be more patient.

I have been waiting for over 6 months for my AOR. Sent a Webform and got a very generic email response

You should call them and possibly try inquiring through MP's office. You need to find if they have opened and created a permanent file number for it.

After six months, presumption is more likely they have returned it for having some problem with the file, and there was a problem with the communication. (Check your email spam folders, for example)
