Buffalo Processing Time line 2010/2011

[sharuu]

From what the current timelines are, applicants from the third and fourth week of January have gotten their AOR. Depending when you applied in February, you should be getting the AOR fairly soon. If you are within Canada, you can try accessing E CAS

Hi sharuu,

Thanks for your information, I am living in edmonton. I only have AINP file number; don't have any other numbers that can access E CAS. I try to put in my work permit ID, it doesn't work. I paid by money order so I don't have receipt number. How can I log in E CAS?

BTW, I checked my canada post receipt, I sent out the pakage on March 8th.

So, you have applied for the AINP and have not received the nomination as of yet? Then you will not be able to access it as that is for federal applications. Once you apply to CIC then you can perhaps see your application.

I already received alberta nomination, they gave me a Buffalo Application guideline, then I sent application forms, money order and other documents to Buffalo on March 8th with the sticker that has "AINP".

Well, according to when you sent it then I would say you should expect something around 2nd week of September. They are now emailing AOR, and mailing the medical requests. So, you should keep a watch for your email for the AOR, around mid September.

Dear wxd111
Take it easy your application is still on track given the waiting times for all pnp applicants. Count 23 to 30 weeks from March 8th to have an idea of when to expect your AOR.
Thanks

It is so frustrating.. I really need a second job as my hours are being cut but cant on a work permit. Also the PNP certificate expires this month and not sure if this affects my application? Does anyone know if this will be a problem????

hi. based on experience, as long as the visa office have your application package before the nomination expires you are good. no worries.... ;D

So u got your doc request.. So that means its in process..hopefully soon.. dont worry.. so did you do your finger print stuff?

just wondering, once we get the visa stamped by post do we have to go out of the country and come back to do the landing paper works (i mean if we are living in Canada already).. or we can just continue staying here...? cos i don't have an US visa, in case if i have to go and come back?

Also in case if they call for interview to Buffalo, what should we do, if we dont have a US visa? I ma assuming interview will be in Buffalo and not in Ottawa..
