Hello,

We filed outbound and sent the forms package to Mississauga. I tracked its delivery via USPS and Customs. Next should be AOR (acknowledgement of Receipt?). I assume this is a letter saying we got the package expect X-weeks for processing.

Is that correct?

Thanks for the info. I am not sure which e-mail address (if any) I supplied. Does anyone know which form that would be on?
