Hello,
I am in the process of submitting an application to sponsor my mother this month.

I realize that I will need a police clearance certificate.

Now is this for every country she has lived in for 6 months or more in her lifetime or a police clearance for a country that she has lived in for the past 10 years?

Also, how long do they give you to submit this information?

to submit an application you don't need police certificates. CIC will let you know once they need police certificates. Yes in any country she spent more than 6 month will required police clearance certificate.

Normally 4-6 weeks once cic will request you police certificates.

Good Luck

Thanks for asking, but so far no luck:(. I called Canada Post 3 times already since last night, got a ticket number, and finally talked to a supervisor. They said no update so far. My package progress is still "Item accepted at the Post Office"

Other than waiting, is there a way to contact CIC? Tho I only have my UCI number here. Does anyone in 2nd round and already sent the application hear from CIC or receive file number?
any luck bro?
 
I mailed my application on 12 Aug, and it is received on 14. I saw people talking about AOR.

Is AOR different from application received?

Yes, AOR which stand for "Acknowledgement of Receipt", is when IRCC sends you an email (or regular mail) confirming the receipt of your application, and that it has been accepted for further processing. They do basic checks to make sure you sent a complete application before issuing AOR.

Thanks for your reply. After submitting the application, how long we should wait for AOR?

No luck, Canada Post closed my case and told me due to some "national technical issue" they have no proof that the mail is delivered. The supervisor told me they can't provide the signature and there won't be any update on the tracking page, but she believed it should be delivered as long as the address on the envelop is correct. I can do nothing at the moment but just wait.

Cravethe6th if you don't mind, could you please let me know when you receive AOR or can link your app online? if CIC did receive my application, I think I can call them to confirm by then. All I can do is hoping for the best:oops:.

Am I supposed to receive an email telling me Sponsorship Application approved after Sponsorship Application Status has changed to Decision Made? Status changed maybe a few days ago. I have not received email yet. Can someone has experience shine some light?

Thanks,
