Not a big issue. Even if you get refusal for your US visa , your application won’t be cancelled or refused. It won’t have any negative impact. So work and go ahead for interview.I have interview appointment at the USA embassy as I have applied to a B2 visa to visit USA back in 2022. I am afraid to get a rejection for whatever reason that might affect my PR process also now I am waiting for the background check and eligibility steps as all other things finished.
Should I just cancel my appointment or it is ok to go even If I got a rejection?
Also does anyone know if they stamp the passport with a rejection stamp or something that might cause problems later?
Could expect anything end of next month or mid August.Hi I applied on March 18 under non express entry bcpnp. How long does it take to receive AOR?

Hey any update? my Final Decision - June 20 2024 and Portal 1 - June 21 2024. thanks
Sorry to hear that. Looks like it was error from their side . In this case you can do anything besides submitting new applications. You have to refill forms with updating new information. You can’t submit application as your PNP nomination is expired. First step is you should submit Post nomination request to PNP office. For that you should email them and attach your application for PR is returned incomplete. They will extend your nomination certificate. It can take around 1-3 months. For meantime you can’t do anything besides waiting.My non-express entry PR application was returned yesterday (after just over 3 months) for the following reason:
A completed Additional Family Information (IMM5406). Section B is incomplete.
I looked at the submitted application and noticed that the IMM5406 Section B is for the dependent children. I have marked this as 'Not Applicable' as per the suggestion in the form itself.
The form mentions "You (the principal applicant) must fill out this form for yourself and on behalf of any of your family members 18 years of age or older who are not already Canadian citizens or permanent residents. If a section does not apply, write “Not Applicable.”
Dependent children in my case are less the 18 years of age and are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents, hence I marked the section as 'Not Applicable'.
They still returned my application. Is there a way I can dispute this and save some time by not resubmitting the application?
I can resubmit it but my provincial nomination has expired for which I have to send a request for extension and I don't know how much time it takes and in case they approve it, and then another 3 months or so of wait before I get an AOR.
@Miss bee and others: Any insights or advice will be much appreciated. Thanks for all the help and support so far.

very similar to my timeline... I'm also waiting and thinking about GCMS notes, but not sure it will provide anything usefulCompletely forgot to mention, my primary VO is winnipeg and secondary is CIO
Any insight would be appreciated. This is OINP international student stream
Thanks for the quick response, @Miss bee This is the second time I've resubmitted the application and the first application also had 'Not Applicable' for this section and they were OK with that then. I'm now skeptical as to what answer they expect in my 3rd re-submission as this would be my final attempt and I can't risk the application to be returned again.Sorry to hear that.
