Hi FiguringItOut- no worries, I will update that one for you.
I don't think all VOs give AOR's as far as I am aware, I think it changes from place to place.
You could try talking to someone on the Islamabad thread- as they will probably have the most recent info regarding timelines and communication with Islamabad VO.
Yes, I agree that the anxiety doesn't really fade, just transfers to the next step of the process ???

Good-luck, and hope you find the info you were after!

thanks tavora! I wonder why it's so fast? Maybe they don't have much other work on at the CIC office in Sydney? Lol. Good luck with the next step of the process for you!

And thanks Prithiv. I am hoping you get your approval letter this week :)

Hey Julyers! Just wanted to visit again from August and say congrats on filling up your spreadsheet so quickly, I hope you finish it off this week. I feel like this is gonna be a good week for everyone in July/August so lets all stay positive and root each other on =) I'm still waiting for my AOR/approval letter so I'm getting anxious, but I still have a few days before I hit 69 days so I'm trying to stay patient.

It's also very nice to see those second stage AORs popping up!

Hey Shylox, I just joined but can't find an August forum. My app. was received in Mississauga Aug. 2. I am sponsoring my wife to come from Cuba and I'm applying from within Canada. Where do I go? Congrats to all you Julyers as you almost all seem to be through stage 1.
