I did. I am calling CIC first thing in the morning. Can't believe this is happening.Skumar76 said:Please raise CSE ASAP.
I think this is the reason, inform CIC when you are calling them. Please update the thread after you call. Thanks.

Hi Skumar and anyone who may be in this situation,
Important update.
I called CIC today and explained my situation. I was on the phone for more than one hour. Even though I submitted the application, when I look at my profile it says both "submitted" and "invitation received" and I received a Confirmation of Online Application Transmission right after submitting it. However! CIC does not see the submitted application! They see "invitation sent" and they cannot find my application. So, it is definitely a technical issue and the woman said that she and her colleague had never seen this issue before. I told them that I found a thread on the forum from someone that ran into the same problem (this thread). So, please, if you are in this situation, call CIC!!!
As for me they told me that they are going to look into the technical issue but since time is of the essence because my work permit runs out today, that I should either apply for a visitor visa or for a bridging open work permit, and instead of the AOR provide them with a letter of explanation with a detailed explanation and screen shots and anything else to prove that I submitted the application. Because I probably won't get the AOR today. No guarantee that they will accept it but I will apply for the BOWP and hope for the best because this is not an issue on our end, but on theirs.
I hope this helps. Skumar, definitely call them now.

Hi HHope8,
I called CIC and they told me the same answer as yours, it is an technical issue. I already raised CSE and explained everything to CIC to fix it, hope it will be done soon.
Also others facing the same issue in their profile should talk to CIC and explain the issue then the action will be fast because most of the time CIC prioritize the issue fixing based on number of impacted profiles.
All the best for your BOWP.
Thanks,
Kumar

Sure. Thanks.
HHope8 said:No still nothing. I will post on here when I get an update, please do the same.
Friends in this thread,
I received AOR, the status of my application is 'We received your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you', check yours. All the best. Thanks.

I received my AOR today too. Last I checked my application status still said "invitation received" so I called CIC and they confirmed that they received it and all is ok. So I suppose it's going to change to "we received your application" any time now.
I also received a private message from another member on the forum who was in the same boat and received the AOR today too - with status "invitation received" but again that should change too.
All the best!
