Hi everyone. We got some news. Last night I was sent a biometrics request. Didn’t receive an AOR prior to that. UK applicant. Relief at last! Good to see things are starting to move again.
Kindly share, when was your application received?
 
Apologies for not mentioning that. 3rd March.
Thanks for mentioning, judging by that they are sending biometrics requests or aors to the apps received before march 3-4 currently, with that in mind, i am expecting the aor1 or biometrics req after 15 sept as mine was received 25th march.

I am in the same boat as you. Hoping to hear some good news soon.

Hey everyone! Thought it would be nice to share THIS with you! Hopefully it pushes the government to act!
I’ve been sharing that all over Twitter I hope it works this time. Bill Blair has employees that are rubbing it in our faces that the borders are closed then compared our relationships to garlic bread and a jar of something else.

What? Can you link me to this. That’s so gross

What? I looked at this exchange. It says nothing of the sort. Wasn't about family sponsors or relations at all.

What is the biometrics option for Indians? I mean when I'll receive the biometric request, where I have to give my biometrics? Are the places where Biometrics are taken, open right now? I heard all VACs are closed in india till September 30th, are there any other places in India to give biometrics?

Per this page, https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ovid19/immigration-applicants.html#processing , the deadline is automatically extended to 90 days although the BIL will state the normal 30.
 
I know any news for most of us is good news. So wanted to share.
I've sent a webform to IRCC and got this answer today:

"Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
We have received your application and it will be processed according to the date it was received.
Once your application is found to be complete and ready for review, the responsible office will send you an acknowledgement of receipt with your application number and instructions to link your application so that you can view the status and messages online.

My application was received on March 30 according to Canada Post
