Hello all. Hope everyone is well today. I wanted to know has anyone received AOR2 from Kingston office? Do they usually send AOR2? I know some people at other offices mentioned they never received AOR2 but their file was processed.

Some people check ECAS to see when it changes to application received on the applicant side then back to in process. I think if you don't get a letter that's another way of marking it.

I don't know if Kingston notifies usually however.

I have a question to anyone who can help. As previously stated it has been confirmed by my local MP that my husbands application was approved on March 16/20 making him eligible to travel because he was approved prior to the border shutting down BUT we never got email for passport requests and are now told that he needed to land in Canada by July 22/20 which obviously he did not. The MP advised us to send webform with specific information which we did and now IRCC came back with an email that basically says...
We verified the information on file and are pleased to confirm that your email sent on September 18, 2020 was received by the responsible office.

Since this file is currently located at the Canadian visa office in Kingston, Jamaica, we invite you to contact them directly if you wish to:

My question is...are we suppose to call them? or will they only respond to emails? We are not even sure why we are contacting them directly. We just need instructions on how to proceed since his travel authorization expired along with all his documents but maybe they will extend those since he was approved 6 months ago already. We need the passport request so then can issue the Visa. I’m so confused with all the run around we get. Thanks

Did you try emailing the KVO office directly. KVO seems to be doing everything but visa these days and using the covid issue as the reason why nothing is being done. Send them an email daily if you have to, I know they may send you an automated reply, but they can't do that forever.

There is a way to send them a Webform request directly. I came across it by accident the other day. It's on the same site but you choose different options. It will give you an option to select KIN as your VO. I'm going to look right now and see if I can tell you the steps.

I would appreciate that thanks...not even sure what we are suppose to say to them other then he was approved, we didn’t get the passport request, he can travel immediately and that he plans to live here permanently. That’s what the MP said to include. At least a webform that goes directly to Kingston makes sense since it would include all the relevant information like his UCI# and file # along with his name and date of birth. Regular email seemed strange to me. Even a link would be good because obviously the link the MP included in their email to us didn’t go where it was suppose to.
