Alright guys, good news, I've got AOR on september 6th and I didn't knew it! :rolleyes:

Since @pr2018_ct (who which app was received after mine on Aug. 15th) got AOR today, I decided to ask my sponsor if we have got an email....and voilà! I just check ECAS (https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do) and it shows in process. :)

Now I have to try to link the PR and OWP app, so I can check updates directly on my account.

@LeeTel check your email, you might have got your AOR too! :)

@LeeTel You must get yours next week for sure, maybe monday because they received your app on the same day.

I'm the PA and I created my own CGkey account.
Both of you can create an account and link the app but note that only one of you can do it, you can't link app to two accounts.

So, your spouse can link the app and give you access or, you can create another CGkey account and give access to your spouse.

PS: the AOR email was not in the spam box, my sporsor just didn't check the email in the last two days. lol

Did your AOR mention anything about your OWP? I didn't see it in mine.

Nop, it didn't mention the OWP app. I'll try to link both later, but maybe we have to wait a few days until the entirely app is on the system.

I still may have an old MyCIC account that I used for the visas and instead of that I created a new one. I don't think they will automatically link your app into an old account, because if an applicant do not link its app, all IRCC contact will be through email.

Exactly @LeeTel the sponsor gets a simple email sent by IRCC showing on top the UCI number and the App number, followed by some general informations.

When you get the AOR you can link the app, it doesn't matter if you link on your own new CGkey account or, on your wife's account.

PS: I just linked my PR app at the first attempt, but I wasn't able to link OWP app now (I've tried 4 times), maybe I have to wait a few days.

Thanks bro, the game it's just starting!

Try not to worry too much, it will arrive soon, hopefully on monday. I've seen people which app was received later and they got AOR earlier than people which app was received like 2 or 3 days before. I think they work with files in batches.

What information combination did you use to link your app? Any tricks (like last name in all caps)? I haven't been able to link even the PR app yet and from reading on this forum sometimes you have to enter info in a weird way. :(

Hi @pr2018_ct !

Follow this steps and just fill the questions I listed, this worked for me on the first attempt. Note that you have only 5 tries in 24h, if you exceed the 5 chances you'll have to wait 24hs to try again. Let us know if its works for you too.
