Hey guys!
So I'm a bit confused and worried.
I received the AOR on May 24th my hubby received his email the following day, but we haven't received any document requests or SA as most people have in this forum. Not sure what the time frame is to receive a request or SA???
My ECAS just says "in process" for myself the sponsor and "application received" for my hubby the PA.
I called CIC yesterday and they just said to wait a little longer but honestly I'm starting to get bit of anxiety.
My hubby received the below email, a day after I received my AOR.
"For your application, we have identified that there are documents which are missing and we will request. Please take the time to link your application so that we can quickly and efficiently ask for the documents, and you can quickly and efficiently submit them digitally. If you have not linked your application to an online account within 7 calendar days, we will send you an email to which you will be asked to respond via regular mail..."
Now I am under the assumption that thESE "missing documents" are the PCC, Schedule A and Medical.
Can anyone please give me some clarity?
From my experience so far, the "missing documents" they are referring to without specifying are likely to be the Schedule A, PCC, and medical exams.
However, you should still get a request through your myCIC account to submit your Schedule A, PCC, and medical (order is random, sometimes Schedule A and PCC are requested first, just like in my case, sometimes the med). In my case, my partner (the sponsor) received his SA (Sponsor Approval) shortly (7 days after) we received AOR. In his SA, it stated that I would be receiving a request to provide my Schedule A and PCC through myCIC account within 5 business days. 7 days passed and I received nothing, so we contacted my partner's MP to help us once again (she help us previously when we weren't hearing back about our application being received at all for 39 days). She called IRCC, and they said they were experiencing issues with the messaging system, so they'll be looking to fix it for us. Our MP also offered to send Schedule A and PCC on our behalf directly to them through a designated email address that only government bodies have an access to. We send the docs to her the following day, she sent them through immediately. A day later I also received a message with request to my CIC. Just to be on the safe side, I uploaded the same docs she sent in there too.
We tried to resolve issues like this one before through uploading a web form, raising an issue, but only received an automated reply. We tried calling from outside of Canada, but never got through to speak to a person. MP was the last option for us and we used it.
My advice is, try calling them. Maybe you will get through to speak to a person and raise the issue. If after multiple attempts and time passing this is of no solution, try contacting your local MP's office.
