Thanks missmini! Hopefully we get approval next week. I'm nervous because we had to let our first PR expire and I'm not sure how that will affect our case. I also just moved back to Ontario but the app says Vancouver. I don't know if my B4 will show up if they check me out and then think I lied.

CIC is working diligently to increase the time for approval:

30 days then 55 days then 60 days then 75 days then 82 days then 89 days now 90 days.

So next week very likely the time would go up even further: 93 days ?

Is someone able to draw a graph and figure out whats going on with CIC.

Stop complaining guys, they received my application on February 2nd and I only got the AOR yesterday, hopefully will get approval next week. Let's say we get approved on Wednesday, the wait will have been 14 weeks, how's that for a long wait time?
