Well, looks like for some reason they are slow in processing the applications
received on February 14th. I am not the only one with 33 days since received....

They were reducing the days to AOR to 28 days......but looks to me that they are slowing down...
next report should say the real time now....

last report was done on March 12 and they were working on applications received
on February 12.....
One week later... March 19 and they still working on files received on February 14th maybe....
we will see the update very soon....
Processing time went to 34 days..... :(
 
Awesome work on the Excel, very informative!! Wonderful Job!

Thanks

Damn it overseas visa office processing times have increased for certain countries. This blows.
 
It's unfortunate, but keep in mind that they are just estimated times based on historicals - there are many instances where things can be speedier! (Just staying optimistic!)

Thanks KanSri ;) I appreciate your words! Sometimes it seems that it is done by it self, but there is always someone behind.
Cheers!
 
I think is good news to have new update of the VO, so we can know how much time (more or less) it can take our application. I've always heard that a normal application should take less time than what they show there. I'm sorry for the people that has seen raised the time for their VO. In my case is one month less, what is awesome!

Good luck to everyone

I know - it must be really tough for you and those around that time - and then I see that (package signed for on the 24th) and I'm going...please please please...soon!

no sa yet its nearly week after aor :( :(

Possible you're getting a hard copy letter. Stay positive! I feel we're so close yet so far seeing mid Feb being processed....but my wife will be here at Easter so that's my main thought. Good luck to all and happy thoughts!
 
We got our AOR last night! what a great way to bring in the weekend :)

now we're just waiting for the SA, but wondering if it's going to be emailed to us, or will they send us the letter? we're both out of Canada..

we tried to log on to check our application status on the CIC website, using the UCI, and then tried again using the application number, but it said they didn't have our information yet.. what does that mean? any information would be highly appreciated.
 
I've been reading it's normal for a delay of a day Ish before you can log in.

Oh and congrats too ! I feel so close...!!
 
Took me almost a week to be able to log in to ECAS - I don't know if that's because I was trying to log in with my husband's information and my UCI number, but I eventually figured it out :/ Still, none of my information is updated even though I've gotten letters from CIC that things have progressed to the second stage.

ECAS could be really great if they updated it in a timely way, but it seems more often than not if just becomes another source of worry for people because it doesn't match up with other information they've received. I'm probably just going to ignore it for the most part.
 
8) Hi Everybody... just want to move our tread to the top....
its going to far down and not easy to find...

In my case, not news yet... this is taking too long
something like 36 days already and I don't get the AOR

I'm sorry to hear that Awesomeg. Maybe they didn't write your email properly or something, and you will get the mail, saying that everything was ok.
If you can't find the thread, you can always use control+F and type February, or write message as you did ;)
It's really bad to see that CIC slowed down
 
Still no word yet on my application. We sent the missing document in a week and a half ago.

How long does it usually take for them to check back on your application if something was missing?
