They're accepting channelers again, so if someone wants to take that route it's much faster than 15 weeks.

Oh! That's great news for new applicants. That was not the case when we applied. Not that I am aware of.

Thanks, let me know if you got DM on Sponsor side after a week or so, because I am observing the DM that most applicant received in sponsor side from january to July 2016 applicant. Im trying to convince myself that it was for sponsor side and wont affect the PR side. Or it could be a sign to, that once DM for Sponsor, maybe the PR side has been apporved in elligibility or anything.

I believe after AOR1. I am also able to link my application with MyCIC/GC Key but have had no luck with ECAS. I think we'll need the UCI# in order to access that.

Anyone get an AOR1 yet this week that filed the week of August 15th?

I hope they come this week ;)

I filed that week and haven't received AOR1 yet. Hopefully soon!

It simply means you can either apply to the FBI for a security clearance OR you can hire a channeller, which is 3rd party to get the security clearance. This is necessary of you are an American Citizen.

Back when I applied for FBI clearance (Mar/Apr 2016) channellers were not acceptable and to apply directly to the FBI for clearance was taking a minimum of 15 weeks.

Thanks for the response guys. I have additional question why is Manila immigration emailed me this?
Dear xxxxxxx,

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which has been received at this office on September 07, 2016.

Your application number is xxxxxx. Please ensure that you quote this number in all future correspondence with our office.

You must submit the following information/documents ONLY IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY SUBMITTED THEM WITH YOUR APPLICATION

She has a dependent son in the Philippines and will not accompany her after her approval in PR, is this the reason why they send my application to Manila? We gave them the birth Certificate and etc and the application on the website says "Decision Made". are we close to get approval? How long does medical exam will receive on immigration office?
 
You guys! JUST received my AOR1 email!! I'm at work right now, but will check if ECAS or MyCIC show any updates when I get home! Yay!
