Hello there, I used to live very close to the border and I have many same day trip, I just add a page to the present calculation with explanation, including an estimate of how many same day trip. I have 1400+ days of physical present so I am not sure if you are close to 1095 It can be a problem.
I just receive my AOR yesterday so I am assuming it will be OK. BTW Today I can check my ECAS, Application Received.

Hello Everyone,

We got AOR on Feb-15 and looking at status in myCIC it claims to have shipped the "Discover Canada " book on Feb-15.
Has anyone from February AOR's received the discover canada book yet? If so how many days after AOR we receive the book?

Another question along the same lines, how many days in average will the test be scheduled once the status goes in progress?

Thanks

They will not send you a hard copy if you recieve AOR thru email.Click on the link in email and it will take you to the book...you can download it from there...or read it there or order a hard copy.

As per the average days to the test check out the 2017 spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16cfQUVB3j56QktacolbsAxpNlOrvk2uFGZzm_ZFCnfg/htmlview?sle=true#gid=671336796

Hi Everyone,

Application received on Jan 10th and still no AOR. Any suggestions what i should do? Seeing that even some February applicants are now getting AORs. Any possibilities my application may have gone to the wrong office? An officer by the name TA signed for it. Anyone else got their application signed for by the same person?

Thanks Everyone.

Hello everyone. My app is "In Process" since Feb28th, just checked now.

!!!!! Let the Jan applicants IPs galore :D !!!!!!!!!

I recently changed address(within town) and wondering when should I update it in ecas. Should it be after changing in all other places like CRA, License, health card etc, as they all could be sharing the info with CIC or vice versa?
Or
since the current address they have is good too, as my rest of the family members are still there, can I leave it as is?

In either case, how much impact will an address have on the processing itself.
