I think a bit of research on the forum will give you the answer. Simply posting the same question in whatever thread you find will create redundant posts which are unnecessary. This will make searching for old topics difficult. Usually FSW candidates receive AOR within 90 days of submitting the application. But this is not the standard time frame. There are people who had to wait more than 4 to 5 months. So there is no concrete answer to your question.

I think they are working on applications from folks already in Canada AND on a close-to-expiring work permit - these people need it far sooner than any of us.

But again. Shouldn't this have been a priority already? Yup.

I am actually tired of waiting. Post AOR, I haven't been asked for any docs and there hasn't been any communication whatsoever.
Yes, AFAIK, they have been processing CEC applicants with soon-to-expire work permits from the beginning. This backlog could be because of the ridiculously huge number of PTs they issued towards the end of 2015 and in Jan 2016. I don't know what they were thinking - I guess improper planning and wrong estimates could have caused them to send these many PTs. Now, they are struggling to process applications.

However, I am not sure what OINP is doing to address this. Today can be just another day in office for them but they should keep in mind that there are thousands and thousands of applicants waiting and moving back-and-forth on very important life decisions. I don't know when they will finish off applications sent in November 2015. Unless they do something and speed things up, the processing times for applications sent in December and months after that would be very, very long (probably a year or even more from submission --> Nomination).

Lets just hope that doesn't happen and OINP addresses this efficiently.

I wish all applicants good luck and a speedy nomination!

Hi guys ! Let's not loose hope yet. Let's remain optimistic that OINP will speed things up. A number of people who get nominations never return to the forum to update other members of their nomination. I have a November applicant who has received nomination already and has kept quiet all this while. Please let's remain optimistic and hopeful. I am a December application and I have received AOR on 7th April. No update afterwards.

Could you kindly share the timeline of the November applicant? Which category - FSW/CEC?

I am guessing CEC Inland. Since those guys might be closer to WP expiry (you already know this)

Has anyone heard on any new quota being declared for 2016 since that might be a key factor in nominations. Last year they did start their program in June.

They gonna do it in November as they've told already. The quota for 2017 will be annouced.
The quota for 2016 was annouced last November = 5500 for ALL streams.

It seems that they even stopped sending autoreplies. I sent two emails and got nothing back.

Raj, yourself, Rafzy, Canadawecome, others must escalate your cases, and think of mailing a petition to higher authorities requesting

them to specifically address your applications as you are the seniors who are suffering the delays the most, without any reason.

(I am sure you all might have escalated and not getting any response)

Did OINP issue 2700 NOMs since they started in June 2015? Was this quota for June - Dec 2015.

The annual report stated that 877 NOMs were issued by OINP. So it 's not that NOM's quota of 2700 got over.

I am a Feb applicant. I mailed update of my passport etc four times in last two months. Sent reminders.

No response, nor a auto reply that OINP will get back in 15 days)
:'(
