Yea, we waited for 4 months before our MC got released :( i know it's such a long wait but we made sure we have it before applying just to make sure. I don't think they will return you package, I heard people got it requested during the PPR(passport request), so pwede sabay sabay na nila hingin sayo yung mga kulang mo na docs.

Yung sa name, it doesn't really matter if you use your maiden name. Mas ok sana kung ginawa mo nalang consistent like using your maiden name all through out. Anyway, hopefully it will all work out fine :)
I waited a couple days for my NSO certified MC to be released and I got married on the 16th of December 2012. I'm a March applicant as well.

it has been 26 days when CPC-M received our application..my husband haven't get any AOR yet, kinda worried about our application too :(
hope we hear something soon..(hopefully) let's stay positive anyways.. :)
You'll hear from them soon. I sent our application on March 05, 2013. I didn't hear from them 'till the 19th of March saying that they received our application kit on the 8th of March. I then waited a couple more weeks 'till I heard from them again, saying I was approved as a sponsor and that my wife's permanent resident app kit was forwarded to Manila Visa Office for processing. Apparently, this process takes even longer, we just all have to be patient and positive. God bless and Good luck with your application.

You have to wait a couple of days before you can use the UCI to check your e-CAS. Same thing happened to me and it got me all frustrated(over nothing).

It's probably still sitting there waiting to be processed. You can refer to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm-fc.asp

they process one week's worth of application every week. Apparently, they're still working on applications received on March 13, 2013. They do updates every Wednesday. Tomorrow, they'll start processing applications received on March 20 - 26. You probably still have a week of waiting. And don't worry, as long as you're not on welfare, you should be fine.

Hi all

Congratulations to the ones who got their AOR

Just to clear the air! take a look in our February spreadsheet and compare the times between Apps Send to AOR to SA
You will see that the average waiting from the first to the last is about 20-30 days.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvI5l_hMO7UKdGpaNzAzVGhGMXUtQWVfRTlqdVozY3c#gid=0

When they send you AOR it means that they are already processing your application. My AOR was sent on March 22 and my SA 5 days later March 27

Do not over stress your selves (I know I did too) as this is a very interesting period. The real worry comes after when your apps go to the VO.

Cheers to all

Hey, are you (kjocson18) married to ellejocson? I have ellejocson on the Manila VO spreadsheet and was assuming the two of you represent the same application. Is this correct?

Congrats!! :) I'm sorry if I feel worried for my application though. :( I don't know what's happened with it. :( I guess my hopes are lifted way too high I feel just so worried. :(
