AOR Feb 17th. I called IRCC for the status of my application cause this is the 8th month since I received AOR.
Made two calls:
On the first call, the agent told me that my background check was cleared even though my CIC account showed it as "Not Applicable". The application was initially at Sydney, Nova Scotia and then moved to Ottawa. The agent stated that, when they moved a file from one office to the other, it may take additional 4 months for the application process to be completed. Therefore, asked me to expect something by this December.
Since I didn't ask if they have information on when the file was moved to Ottawa and what else is remaining to be checked, I made my second call. The second agent found that a note from an Ottawa officer was made on my file on March. This could mean that the file was moved on March. She also stated that my eligibility, medical, security and background checks have all been passed (I confirmed this twice) and it is currently waiting for an officer to be picked up for approval. This agent told me to expect something by the end of this month.
I have ordered for GCMS notes as well two weeks back. Patiently waiting....
