Okay, I have an update. I just received and email regarding passport gap. See below, no AOR yet. But maybe I can still consider this as good news?
Passport Gap('s):
There is a gap in the validity period of the passport
covering the (5) years immediately before the date of the application.
Please provide an explanation why the passport does not cover the entire period of time from 2021/12/22 to 2022/04/26 and whether you traveled outside Canada
during that period.

How are you going to reply to this query? Have they provided a link to upload the explanation?
We can only speculate... They must have moved resources away at Sydney, NS to target other streams/products. Or There were reports that paper applications are now diverted to New Waterford, NS - issues with that office because of staffing levels. Or existing staff is diverted to training new hires.
Anyway it's frustrating when before Fiona (hurricane) paper applications were seeing AORs in 1-2 weeks and online applicants were seeing AORs in days. I hope they pick up the pace again
Yes i did, you could do an easy online one if u have a fingerprint in dubai police system, otherwise you would go with the long steps process , first fingerprint in your city it should be approved office, then take it to local notary , then to Deputy provincial secretary office for authentication , then to UAE embassy in Ottawa , then you will make an online application at dubai police for police certificates (outside of UAE), then attach everything with the original fingerprint and send it by DHL to dubai police , And at the end make a cup of coffee and take a break ... DONE
