We got our AOR! Just for everyone's information, the email was sent last night at 10 pm... seems like they are usually sent at night? Also my courier tracking said that our package was received Aug. 9, but the AOR says Aug. 10.

Cheers guys!

Congrats muchaco and AnARcHo! Such great news =) I kind of feel like my application will be next since its right below the big group of people who have gotten AORs and such, but I know that's not a good thing to rely on. =(

AnARcHo, I noticed you aren't on the spreadsheet, if you provide louie_ann with these details you can be added:

date your app was sent:
date it was received by CIC:
your visa office:
when you got your medicals done:

Good luck with everything guys!

I got AOR and sponsorship approval by email. I think a better question is, for those who provided an email address, who received AOR/approval by email.

We are staying hopeful, and more importantly, trying to stay realistic. haha It's definitely a good thing that August is moving so quickly but I also know that a lot of July hasn't been touched so I don't want to get my hopes up too high.

munchkin80....50-50 as to whether it is email or snail mail for the approval....all aor's are by email so that doesn't help....but usually within 2 days to 2 weeks of receiving aor one gets sponsorship approval!!!! so not to much longer..... :D
