nflcanada said:My application arrived at CIC on April 21 and I'm sure it will be sent back because it's stale dated. Noticed it when I went through the copy that I made. I still haven't received it so if they screen it first, I should've received it back already. If they're not sending it back, I should've received an AOR by now. If they only opened it last week when the rest of the AOR emails of that day/period was sent, and then returned it by mail, then it makes sense that I haven't received it yet. Can take a week to get mail from NS to BC.
If you are sure it is stale dated then it would be returned. Can you shed more light that how you determined that it was stale dated?
Usually it takes 1 to 4 months for CIC to open the package and send AOR. Please be patient.
