I got SA on March 11 and Manila VO received my application on March 17. So it took about a week. But I think CPC-M forwards applications every so many days. A week would be a good guess after the date of SA.
That sounds good to me. Thank you wonnie. Oh wait another question, whats the next step after Manila VO gets my husband's application I mean after they send you AOR2. Thankssss. :)

After Manila VO receives your application, they will start initial review for missing documents, medical exams, or passport request for some countries and will send you AOR2. After a while, they will process and make decision on your application. But the timeline is definitely case by case. I am December applicant and Ecas still shows medical results has been received. A few December applicants (even January applicant!) already got DM on Ecas. Good luck to your application! :)

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to share with everyone that I finally got my AOR by email today. Quick question does that mean they acknowledge that the application was done properly?

Hi wonnie. May I ask, how did you know that Manila VO received your application on March 17th? Does this mean you receive AOR2 on March 17th? I got SA on April 21st but no AOR2 until now. Thanks.

Hi Mhikyla12, I got my AOR2 stating that Manila VO received my application on March 17 on April 22. No additional documents requested and no passport request. You probably need to wait for a while until you hear from them. Good luck!

Congrats Kyo!! 1/2 of step one is complete. AOR is a response saying it has been received, but not necessarily looked at yet. Shouldn't be long now in a couple of months we should be seeing from you a big "yeeeehaaa" at the completion of your 1st stage.

Chris.

I hoping someone with a similar experience can help me ....My wife has attended the seminar and has her gcp sticker on her passport. My question has to do with my daughter. she is 3 years old and has both a Canadian and Philippine passport. At the seminar my wife was told that my daughter would need an exit clearance in order to leave the country. I don't think this is true since she has a Philippine passport. i would appreciate hearing from anyone that has gone through a similar situation. Can my daughter leave using both passports or is there still something missing?

Hi guys. Below are the fees of what I have paid to sponsor my spouse who is outside Canada. I paid a total of $1,040. Is this correct?

Sponsorship Application - $75
Principal Applicant Application - $475
Right of Permanent Residence Fee - $490

I have included the receipt in our application package.

Thanks all.

That is fine, its actually a good thing to do as much as possible upfront, Leaves less of a reason for any slow downs while they wait for the RPRF fee to be paid.
