When are march file numbers coming? at least things should be in sequential order even if delayed... Im a little dissappointed in the way AINP is processing things.

I had a lawyer file the paperwork for me because I had too many things going on at the time. I was surprised to see the long time it took for Alberta to receive the application too when I got the file# confirmation email, suspect my papers were filed a little later then my lawyers had said. I think they had me under 2171 in the new process.
Okay. Now i understood what you are saying. Even though AINP received your application in feb there email says that they received the application in march, this happened to every one with one month delay. I think that is the time they enter your details into system. I assume that your file reached there on Feb 23rd.
Anyway thanks for explaining.

vsrao, can you add file # 664 to nick_s in the spreadsheet that you are maintaining? http://tinyurl.com/ABPNP-SRS-Timeline
Thanks very much for your consistent effort.

Going by the general trend of folks waiting for nomination, it appears a number of us with file # recd in Mar 19 timeframe are next in line. Applying the 129 days timeframe it took for notdet to get nomination, we should expect Mar 19 folks to get nominations by July 31.

And I have a hunch we'll see a flood of nominations. I truly hope that comes true!

Best of luck..

Going by my received date, which is March 23, to coolguyme, which is April 14, it looks like the file#s jumped from 14xx to 38xx in less than a month, but they're issuing file#s faster? hope the nominations will catch up at some point too

March applicants did not receive there file numbers. I believe there is a buffer for them.
