Any applicants from Ottawa got their IP yet ? Our applications must stink or something, nobody wants to work on them...

I'm in Kingston, so I'm assuming mine will be processed by the Ottawa office. I got my IP February 12th.

It feels like December is the slowest month for applications
It has certainly slowed down relative to previous months... I am comparing application times for October and November 2018 since they are closest to us, that would be the best reference point. We are looking at AORs taking 2 months and IP taking 2 weeks after AOR. For December it does seem like we are getting delayed for no apparent reason. Even January 2019 applicants are getting their AORs now.

Always check email box properly including junkfolders. Many times people find AOR after weeks sitting in theirs emails.

Hi,
also my friend's application was received on Dec 4, 2018 and no AOR yet.
This is an update.
Friend of mine just received his AOR (some hours ago). Interesting thing is the document was dated Feb.12 but sent today.
His ECAS says 'In process' now.
