It takes a while after received AOR actually to log in to the system, try after 2-3 days :)

I am a November applicant, so I already have SA as well :)
It took me around 4 days to be able to log in in the system after I received AOR :) Good luck

Yeah, again its not that I don't think I'll get AOR, its just that we went on this trip because someone suggested we'd have no trouble returning to Canada with AOR, but we never got it and we leave tomorrow. I'm sure I'll get AOR or even just SA in the next two weeks, but if they don't let him re enter Canada that will cause a lot of issue.

Totally understand your anxiousness. From experience the VOs are usually very friendly with married couples. Do you have a copy of your receipt for the application? You can bring that as proof. Hugs for tomorrow.

Hello Guys,

I just want to confirm if I am right with my understanding on Question#6 of IMM 5490 which says:

6.) Give any additional details describing the circumstance of your first meeting with your sponsor.

I am confused if:

Does this question refer to the circumstance of our first meeting in person?

or Was this pertaining to the circumstance of the first time that my husband & I communicate? In other words, how my husband & I know each other?

The whole section is asking about in person.

They weren't friendly in December,when we got our first VR. We have the receipt from paying the fees, and a receipt from him paying his union fees to prove hell return to work. Here's hoping.. He's just been in and out a lot the last 2 months.

EDIT: No issues, he was let in with no VR or anything :D! If we don't hear AOR Monday I'll call them Tuesday morning before work (start my new job tmrw!)

Estimated time for Sponsorship is 62 days now, and tomorrow is day 62 for us, so I'll have my husband call them tmrw right at 7am while I'm getting ready for work. I've heard they won't take your call 'til you're past the SA time.

Hello Guys,

I am so happy to share the good news, we got our AOR last January 28. ;) :) :)

Questions: Once we received AOR does it mean that CIC will not return our papers due to incomplete application? Can I check the status of my application online? How?

My husband and I are in Manila right now and will apply for my new visitors visa, hopefully it will be approve.

Thank you so much

1) I personally have not heard of a case where an AOR is received, and then the file is returned. You should be safe.
2) Yes, on your AOR you should have a UCI# and an application #. Using one of those, as well as the sponsor or primary applicants relevant information, you can login here: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do?app=ecas It usally takes around 3 days before you can login, but possibly more.

I'm currently living in the Philippines with my wife on the visitor visa, its a very quick and easy process, no issues so far. Good luck :)
