This is exactly what I did, I used the P.O. Box address, and sent it via express post with signature option via Canada Post from Calgary, and it got there the next day.

Hopefully, it gets resolved.

I also used the text message scan option to know when it gets to CIS Mailroom.
The text message scan .. it this something I can add now? If so how do I do that.

Unfortunately based on what I've read on this forum, sending it to the PO Box and telling Canada Post to require a signature can cause delivery problems.
I'm not able to provide any further info besides that - I've just read stories on here relating to it. Maybe someone else can chime in w/ their experience.
I sent mine as well to the PO Box address requiring signature....thankfully it was delivered without any issue and someone signed

No, it can't be added again.

It's usually added with the documents sent, you enroll for the service, and a barcode page is generated, which​you print and send along with the documents.

It's a mixup somewhere.

Follow it up with Canada Post, and after a while, you can call CIC, when you notice April applicants getting AOR.

There are 2 threads for April 2017 Outland applicants. Looks like this one was started first, so I assume we are using this one?
Our application package was signed for this morning. We also signed up for the pilot to have them text us (which involves including a barcode that is scanned when the package is opened). I'm interested in seeing how long it takes us to get that text message...
:)
Mine got delivered morning and recieved text messages in the evening from IRCC

this is NOT good ... sent by Canada Post - Express Post (Signature Required) April 4 ,2017 from Mississauga, Ontario Post Office --- to Case Processing Center Station A Mississauga .... checked online with Express Post tracking number -- as of April 10th still shows out for delivery ... called Canada Post -- put in a investigation ... not very happy. :(
Hi....I am hoping this will give you some reassurance. I previously sent my application in March to the same address you listed, and unfortunately it was returned. At this time it was signed for upon delivery. On April 4, I resent my package with Canada post including tracking and signature upon arrival, and like you I have yet to receive any confirmation of delivery or signature. I called Canada post and they told me to call back Tuesday. I included the texting barcode in my package, and I received a text message on the night of April 5...I think we may have the same timeline so I'm thinking your package probably arrived the same time as mine and there was just a problem with Canada Post. Hoping for the best here :)

Ive been following this thread for a while since got married in 2014.. Finally submitted my application today...

I work in the same building as the case processing office in mississauga so I packaged everything and took it to the 3rd floor only for them to tell me they do not accept applications from the public I have to mail or courier it to them. So I had to walk in the rain across the street to request purolator service back to the very same building I work just so happened that the purolator delivery man was there for pick up and he waited for my package while we all laughted at how silly it was seeing that I work in the same building..

anyways I paid the $20 delivery to have to shipped on next day service so its just the waiting game from here.

Fingers cross I did everything correctly and submitted all required documents and they are all sufficient hope to have hubby here in 6months.

Still a few days away, probably.
The last person to receive AOR seems to be 3/27. I'm 3/28 and crossing my fingers for mine today or tomorrow :)
