Hi all,

I just used the online tool to check my application(I am the sponsor) and its been on like this since we submitted.

Sponsorship
  1. We received your application to sponsor ********************* on May 24, 2019.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on May 31, 2019.
  3. We started processing your application on May 30, 2019.
Permanent Residence
  1. We received ******************* application for permanent residence on May 24, 2019.
Nothing updated since May 30. We were able to link the PR application but not the OWP. It can't find the OWP application. After we submitted, it got returned due to incomplete fees (which by the way we paid immediately we noticed and they acknowledged the web form we sent to that effect) and we resubmitted it June 10th. We haven't had any movements since then and I am starting to get worried.

Do we receive a different acknowledgemnt for Sponsorship and PR?

Do we get an email before the work permit is sent in the mail?

I think you just have to wait if it has not been returned again, some people managed to link the OWP with the PA UCI number, some other people got it in the mail without even linking it and without notice from IRCC, it's pretty messy. You were one of the lucky ones that got AOR in like 1 week. Many in may are still waiting for AOR or waited for AOR for over 50 days and most haven't heard about the OWP yet.

does anyone knows if there is a difference between police certificate and criminal record check?
Because i have sent the criminal record check but they returned my app stating, "police cerificate missing".
Did you check which type of police check certificate you needed through the IRCC website? They tell you which one they require on there, with a link to the relevant site.
 
I have AOR and was able to link my application online on August 5th but even now I can't link my OWP... is there a guide or something for common mistakes I might be making? I'm asking because I saw multiple people say that you should be able to link OWP a few days after linking the initial application and I'm anxious about being able to continue working.

I received AOR June 26th and I still cant link OWP application.
 
I got my AOR August 3rd, but I haven't been able to link my application at all, so don't worry you guys aren't alone! For anyone else having issues, I'd suggest writing down what combinations you've been using whenever you try to link it. Here are a few posts that I hope will help everyone with getting their application linked.
