Called today... took me 10 tries to get through (god they should just put you in a waiting list like normal companies instead of making you call back constantly.. though on my 10th time I had to wait with music forever).

They told me it will take a few more days until they look at my application but I am in the system. So I guess that's AOR?
He is e-mailing me my number so I can change my address... progress yay! My biggest fear was it getting lost... now my biggest fear is screwing up the application D:

... and the e-mail he sent me contained no number, just instructions on how to change my address online, which requires a NUMBER to do... I even confirmed with him he would send me a client ID # and he said yes..

hey sariss,

congrats on getting through and talking to an agent! :) well they are looking at your file, so you should hear from them soon - too bad for your file number, that would have been practical!
good luck for waiting, hope you'll hear soon!
Cheers,
Sweden

APPROVAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D

We called cic this morning and when I put in my client ID (from my previous Working Holiday Visa) and my year of birth, it said "your application was received on May 17th". Then my hubby talked to the agent who told him that a letter was sent to us on August 20, and that he was approved as a sponsor and that they sent our application to our VO.

I'm so happy it's unbelieveable!!! :D

Good luck to everybody who is still waiting!!

AOR received August 21!! To God be the glory.. :)

Pls update spreadsheet..

If they gave the UCI number, and mentioned that they will forward to Manila office,was that just AOR or already considered APPROVAL too? Just to confirm.
Congrats! It is APPROVAL!
