Waiting for the day when February applicant will be processed...

Any progress in Jan 2020 applicants? I believe early Feb 2020 applicants will have to wait another month or so. I am also waiting for the day

There is a report of 20 Jan AoR today

 

[Asfano74]

2 AOR reported on July 20 and one on July 21.These are for applications received On January 16, January 20 & January 25.
So , mathematically, expect another month for February applications.

One of Feb 2020 applicant got AOR few days ago, his application was received on Feb 16. Applicant not in this forum

I sent my application on Jan 29th but it was just regular mail as CIC requested so I don't know when(or if) they received it. Where do you guys check status?

 

[mafshinfar]

What did they do with us that we will be very excited to even receive AOR???
Many of my friends completed their process in 5 months.
It is not fair.

FB post forward:- Attended my virtual oath. The process took 2 hours because we had 41 participants. But ceremony was sweet

Its same like how you checked your PR application status. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-status.html
Possibly Feb applicants will start receiving AOR from next week as cic has reached Jan end applicants this week. So yours would be in few days(or worst case 1-2 weeks).
Also people are talking that more cic workers returning to work from Aug and more paper applications are being scanned and being sent to cic workers whoever are working from home. So we should see more speed in Aug than this month.

 

[Kanedaa]

Can we guess that Feb AORs will be done by Mid August?

I know you are anxious due to being march applicant but i think that we will be lucky if we get Feb gets completed by end of Aug given the sticky slow situation. Even though cic has plans to speed up but it wont match up the speed of Feb hence its doubtful.
