The biometrics fee reminder file number can not be used to link to your account. You have to wait for your AOR for that.Hello - CIC received our spousal sponsorship on April 29 and on Sept 3 we got email for CIC for Reminder Biometrics Fee. is that F000 # will be able to link the file? or do we I need to wait for another letter. anyone have any idea? Thanks
My partner (sponsor) received our AOR (although looking at the spreadsheet, which I will add to, this may be a prospective AOR) today! It states "We have received your application, and will advise whether your application is complete or is missing required documents.", so I guess they haven't gone through the applications yet, but at least things are moving!

Congratulations too! Yeah, I didn't have any issues opening / downloading it.Congratulations!
I got the AOR email this morning, are you able to open the PDF file attached on that email? For some reason I couldn't review or download the PDF file, I don't know if it's just me or others having the same issue.
Thank you.
I understand what AOR means but why two different columns in spreadsheet. One for prospective app# and one for AOR itself. What's the difference?It means they officially acknowledging receipt of your application.
