The online portal where you submitted your application stays like that forever, so don't worry about it.Its been more than 3 business days/ 5 days since I got my AOR in the email. my application in the online portal still says application submitted and I am not able to link my application to the tracker (https://ircc-tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/register). is it common? or should I be concerned? thank you!
When you try to link your application to the tracker, type your application # and UCI # manually rather than copy pasting as it doesn't work correctly when you copy paste.
