Congrats to those who received their AOR2!!! Now the waiting game!!!
I realise that it's variable depending on each case and VO, but any idea what the average time between AOR2 and DM is?

Have a look at the 2015 spreadsheet and focus only on those from your VO. For instance, for mine (Mississauga), on average from the reception of the application to Decision Made, it took in 2015 an average of 156 days (5 months).

This is the best answer I can give you :)

Congratulations! :)

And calculating such an average sounds like too much math (albeit easy math, but I am lazy).

I was curious as well so I did do the math. Average from SA to DM in 2015 for Ottawa was about 172 days.

But it has gotten faster since last year. I really would be surprised if it took that long.

If you look at the spreadsheets, you can select a variety of cells, such as by dragging to select a single column through a range of rows, or through all rows. Once you do that, in the bottom right hand, Google Sheets has a feature which at first will show the sum of all those cells. If you click on it, you can select to view the average instead, and it also shows minimum, maximum, etc.

Cool, thanks for that. The wait between AOR2 and DM is going to feel looooong!

I think once a little time passes and we're not thinking about it as much it should feel like no time at all! At least I hope so

For Mississauga in 2015, SA to DM was an average of 90 days. For those who are also being processed there.

That is not bad :)

For Mississauga it varies from 21 days to 145 days.

Seeing as I am already past the earliest point - now I am hoping it comes around the average mark of 90 days :) :p
