Hello everyone,

I sent my PR application as Quebec Skilled Worker after having obtained the CSQ through the PEQ. I sent my file on July 2, and tracking says it was received on July 7.

I still didn't receive AOR until this day. I'm getting worried.

Can other people please share their experiences? How long is recently taking Quebec-based PR applicants to receive AOR?

I saw spreadsheets where people share their timelines in other programs in Canada like PNP. Is there a similar one for Quebec?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Dounia,

Thanks a lot for you reply! :)

Can you please tell me what AOp is? I'm new to the forum, so I am not very familiar with the terminology. Did you mean AOR ?

So I'm supposing you sent your PR application early in April?

My PR application arrived at Sydney on 2014-05-12 and I got my AoR on 2014-07-16 and have yet to get an 'Acknowledgement of Processing' nor my medicals requested. Although, my AoR says that my application has been placed into processing... But, my online status only says "Application Received".

Could anyone shed some light on that?

Note that applying through PEQ only expedites the issuance of your CSQ. For federal processing, you are put together with all QSW applicants.

Oh okay, so AOP means Acknowledgement of Processing. Thanks for the note!

My friend who sent his file back in January also as QSW received his AOR in 5 weeks! I guess it's taking more time now! :(

In a week from now, it would've been already 2 months that my file had been received and I am yet to hear from them! not even an AOR!

Thanks for sharing your stats. It seems there's some randomness in the process since it took you about 1.5 months to get an AOR while it took ps2qft more than 2 months.

On Monday, it would be exactly 8 weeks since they received my file. I will call and see if they would give any information.

usually it takes 2 months to 3. I tried to call them couple times but since my file is at Sydney we can not contact them bc they have no number to call. but you should get your MR next month or maybe you will get the MR and pass request in the same time

Thanks for the info. The website says that they will not reply to emails if the applicant sends an inquiry less than 8-10 weeks after sending the file. So I will send them an email mid-next week and I'll see what they say.

Thanks Dounia! :)

I see. I've been looking at posts in some forums on this website, and it seems this year it's taking longer. All the best to you. I hope you hear something before the end of the year. :)
