Hi all,

I got an e-mail saying my application was transferred to my PA's visa office. Is that considered AOR2? If not. OK. That e-mail was sent to me on Oct. 13 and I have not received another e-mail from IRCC since then.


Also, I've heard about this ECAS 3rd line and I have no idea what that means or what it should look like. I have a line on ECAS that says
  1. We started processing your application on October 25, 2017.


    I am confused since I haven't received any e-mail from my PA's VO yet. Any help would be great.

We started processing your application in Oct 25=unnoficial AOR2.

This means your VO received the application OCT 25. They will send you an email (hopefully) when they pick up your file. Right now, your file is in a review queue just sitting down in some registry room in w.e VO your being processed at. When an officer picks up your file(May be weeks or months from now depending on your VO, in my case it took almost 2 months) then usually they will send you an email letting you know the actual review has started. That will be your official AOR2.

Hi, I am hoping you might have an answer for me. The AOR2 e-mail you speak of, will it just be an e-mail that says "We received your application" from the local visa office's address? My ECAS does not have the third line yet, but I (principal applicant) did however receive an e-mail from my local visa office stating that my application was received in September 2018 (the same date that is in the AOR1).

Timeline: App sent: 10 September '18
AOR1: 17 December '18
SA: 10 January '19 (ECAS and E-mail to sponsor)
E-mail from local VO to PA: 21 January '19 (ECAS not showing "We started processing" yet
