Good Morning CIC. What can I do to help you open my file today.
Switch on your computer, dust off your keyboard, sharpen your pencil, top up your coffee with extra caffeine?.... :p

AOR's are emailed.....and Approvals seem to be both email and regular mail......doesn't seem to be a reason other than individuals who handle the file.....my aor was emailed and my approval mailed!

KJG- if you received AOR in June 14th and received approval in June 20th.. seems like they only review and process your documents in 6 days? Awesome... :)

yes that is the fast part......basically under family class sponsorship you know pretty much you are approved if you have no criminal past and you are not on welfare or a recent bankruptcy......but having said that you wait to make sure they get the app which seems to take months and then you get the AOR and some people are getting their approvals on the same day.....

I'm going to cross-post this, but I just phoned CIC and they said they don't have my application on file yet. But the lady added that they're working on applications received on April 10th today. This might be good news for some!

Subaru any update? I tried to log on ecas by using my PR card client id, not responding. When we type do we have to type the - as well? I mean for example 1234-5678. Do we need to type the -?

thx
