****** CEC - November 2022 AOR ******

[Lord_Tony]

I believe it's AOR like any of the others.
My "Lock-in-date" is actually 3 weeks before I received my nomination, and 4 weeks before my AOR, so there could be some mistake there, but i'm not sure.

how do I find my lock-in date?

how do I find my lock-in date?

If you have GCMS Notes anywhere, it'll be on the first page about a 1/4 of the way down. CBSA notes it'll be on the page with the Application Details / Summary (pg 3 for me)

Finally received portal email today!

The batch of late Oct and early Nov was initially assigned to Vancouver VO, I think, and something happened with Vancouver delaying the whole batch. The cases were then re-routed to other VOs, and I think that they indeed put the rerouted cases to the end of the prevailing queues at the receiving VOs, instead of inserting accordingly to the AOR...

My VO was Originally Edmonton and SVO was Winnipeg. Edmonton then Transferred my file to Etobicoke at some point, and they became the PVO, with Edmonton now currently the SVO.

I have seen my tracker getting updated multiple times since Apr 19th long pause

Yes! For me it got updated twice. One on 12th May (probably because I called IRCC on 11th May) and other one today.

Got my portal 1 this morning from etobicoke.
Aor nov 3, good luck to those who are still waiting

Congrats!!!

I was under the impression that the "lock in date" was used when a VO processes an application, so it really shouldn't matter when the VO gets given the application or not.

I also have same feeling. They process pnp file based on lock-in date

Any Idea how long would security check take?

Thanks,

Hasn't happened with me, but a friend of mine had to go through the same process for his spouse who was outside Canada.
They ended up sending the required items (photo, passport etc.) to Ottawa for getting their COPR.

Thanks for the reply.I assume you are an inland candidate.

Can you pls explain the process you have to go. I mean did you receive the portal email in your registered personal email I'd or in the ircc portal? How did you then replied to it.

CEC AOR Nov 21. The last update on the tracker was on Jan 31, which is background completed. The eligibility review has not started (as per the tracker). Order notes in late April, but no response yet... I was wondering if anyone is in a similar situation.

Yup, quite a few NOV peeps are in the exact same boat

AOR Nov 4, all stages completed in the tracker since March 29. Still waiting, anyone else? Would calling IRCC help at all?

Hi.
I have one question:
CEC Inland - 1 dependent
Bio: passed
Med: passed
Background: passed Apr 17
Eligibility: in progess since Apr 5 as per GCMS dated Apr 28.

I called IRCC last Tues, they told me I already passed EVERYTHING, just have to wait for portal email in next couple of days
I called them back last Friday since I didn’t see any portal email. They told me my eligibility is still in progress?
Have anyone experienced this situation before? Any suggestions?

PVO: CIO SVO: Ottawa
