R Mahmood received my package on March 4, 2016. Very exciting as i was just able to access this information on the Correios website (Brazilian post). Now it's a waiting game :) It appears as if there aren't many Sao Paulo applicants on this thread, hoping that this is a sign that the VO is relatively quick with application processing?
not sure if my original post was sent to you directly or posted to everyone in this thread - so here I posted it again.

hi again - hope you have been well. I just got back from visiting my wife in Sao Paulo for 2 weeks. We actually visited morro De sao Paulo which I loved - fabulous time. as for our application here is our update - Our application was received in Mississauga on Feb 9th. We got AOR on March 15 and also received Sponsor approval on March 21st. Our application has been forwarded to Sao Paulo and when we checked our file they also received our medicals as well. We are still waiting for an FBI clearance from the US for my wife as she was in the US for longer then 6 months at one time. I'm in Toronto and you? I know your in Brazil now but where in Canada are you from and where will you be living?

Wish you all the best and really hope you get positive news quickly.

I'll keep you updated as well should anything transpire on my end.

cheers,
John

Hi there!

Glad to hear your time in Brazil was enjoyable!
And congratulations on your paperwork being sent to São Paulo! My application was received in Mississauga on March 4th so I'm going to be a little bit behind you! Haven't received anything yet but hoping for good news this week or next week!
Me and my husband were living in Toronto together before we came to Brazil, and when we return to Canada we'll be living in Ottawa as my family is there.

I will keep you updated as soon as I hear something, and please let me know if you hear anything as well :)

Your notes will be more informative and it will give you a pretty good general idea of where things are. Glad you ordered them :)

Luckily for me, my application is staying in Mississauga; however, I have yet to receive AOR2 (could take some time even if they have the application there already).

I have not received my SA yet.. I received AOR on March 15th.. I am not sure if this is the right time to contact CIC now..

My status has changed from PR to citizenship after I have applied for spouse sponsorship.. do you think they are waiting for me to update the file ??

Is it mandatory to update the file with my citizenship certificate??

Experts.. please advise..

Seeing as you have AOR1 - you might want to send it in (include a cover letter explaining the change (PR to Citizen) and write your UCI# and Case File # on the cover letter as well).

I would wait until the end of the week before contacting them - you have to keep in mind that there is a long weekend. Some delays are to be expected.
