Sorry to hear that Neochan.

You have included some valuable points in your posts.
I never thought the CIC officers would check every single boxes (though that is to be expected).

Also I saw you applied on Sept 9th. That means applications received around Sept 7-14th are now getting checked.
The date on the letter is Oct 7th. That means to return the application CIC takes 30 days, on average.

These are valuable points. Thanks a lot buddy.
And good luck for next submission.

Hi guys, the intake office has returned my application because I forgot to include the birth certificate of my wife.... lol. I actually could not believe that i have overlooked this.

But anyhow, I am taking this as a wake up call and make sure that I check, double check and triple check everything before I finalize and submit my application. It's also a blessing in disguise as I am not sure if I actually have met the 52 weeks requirement as I have taken a vacation in mid January to February 15, 2013. But this time, I am pretty confident that I have more than 52 weeks of experience.

I also wanted to share how my application forms and documents were looked at by the officer:

1. Each and every entry that I have made on the application forms were actually check one by one and they have mark them with a red pen.
2. In Imm 0008 - Under the question number 4, Immigration Office Requested for processing this application, I have entered: CPP-Ottawa, but the officer have striked it and erased it and have marked it as: CPR. I am not sure what this CPR means? anybody?
3. They did not use the self-address mailing labels. What they have used is a big 8x11 envelope with a clear plastic window where my name and address appears from the letter they have prepared.
4. The letter which states the reason for the return of my application was dated October 7, 2013. So guys, it seems that the processing time is picking-up and getting faster each day.
5. I also have made a lot of errors on the data entry, most especially with the dates where my wife and I have lived for the past 10 years. LoL...

I have read somewhere from a post from toby that we need to check, double check, triple check and let your wife or another person to review everything before submitting the application. Which is actually true and that is what I am going to do right now. It appears to me that the officer was the one who checked it for me, corrected the mistakes that I have made and then returned it to me. lol

Also this will actually clear my mind and worries, that next time I submit my application, I will not include all my paychecks as my employer does not pay overtime. Not until the month of August, 2013 and onwards.

Thanks,

Neo
Its good they return it to you in few month...My application is stuck with negative review from 11 month and 17 days no actions so far

Hi

Sorry to hear that Neochan. I am now worried about my application too. Because I have marked my NOC code as 2173 where as it should be 2174. Fingers crossed. By the way, can you tell us the date of your application, date received etc.

Regards,
Kunishsa
Hi Kunisha,

I sent my application Sept 9 and they received it Sept 13.... Goodluck

Thanks a lot for your update Neochan.

My application reached them on Sep 9th. So if I don't get my package returned in next 3-4 days, I can safely assume that I am on the way to get my AOR. Sorry for your case and thanks for the information you had provided to this forum. It is very useful and we need to let future applicants also aware of the situation.

Regards,
Kunishsa

Hi All

I had been refreshing "Trackitt" for past few days and finally there are some updates to the list. 15th August folks have got their AORs yesterday. So maximum 15 days for some one from our family to get their AOR i.e September applicants.

Cheers,
Kunishsa
