I received the AOR from Buffalo today!!!!
The letter says that my file is in query awaiting assessment. I know that my medical has expired (April) so they should (will) be requesting that I take another...that paperwork was not included with this letter...but progress, nonetheless. I'm stoked!

I'll update my timeline later...just wanted to share the news, especially for those who had received their sponsorship approval around the end of April.

Cheers!

Congratulations and good luck! As soon as we got our AOR, I asked Ottawa to forward the results of my medical to BUF, and it seemed to help our application to be processed quickly by BUF. Ottawa replied the next day and told us they had sent the medical that same day.

Also, if you're interested, come join our Buffalo thread - you can see how other Buffalo applications are proceeding:

what was the reason that you needed to ask Ottawa
to forward the medical on to Buff. Isn't that something they do automatically or does that have to do with when you had the medical done? We did our medical before we sent our application so I am thinking they match them up.

I did that because I've read somewhere in this forum that sometimes people got letter from visa office that they hadn't received the medical result and also some people said it could take up to 2 months from the date you did medical check up that Ottawa send the result to visa office. I don't know if it's true but it doesn't hurt to try. At least it made me knew for sure Ottawa got the medical result and forward to Buffalo. So it is not something you must do except you feel like to do it.

I faxed them the letter to both number 613-954-6211 and 613-954-8653. In the letter, I mentioned my name, nationality, date of birth and my immigration file number as well as gave them information when and where I did medical check up. I asked them to forward the result to the visa office and also asked them to confirm us by returned fax once it is done.

It only took a day that they faxed me back to confirm my medical result had been forwarded to Buffalo.

What a great idea. This may seem stupid but I didnt know that is where the medical went... or is that just for inland medicals?

Thanks for the info BTW.

I don't know about inland but all outland application, medical result will be sent from DMP to Ottawa and then Ottawa will forward it to visa office.
