Hello everyone.. any idea how long it takes to get COPR after PAL? I got my invitation to pre-arrival services in the second week of June 2023 and still waiting for the portal.
Hello,
Some of my friends got COPR between 3-7 days some in queue for more than 3 months. I think officers' work on Background& security checks and they should be completed to issue the copr.

Did anyone who sent in PAPER applications after July 2021 actually get their AORs? I'm just curious about how the whole backlog situation is unfolding. It seems like they might have put a halt on giving out AORs since June 2023, as I haven't really heard much about people getting them since then.

commitment certificate for additional document request from IRCC? In this case just send to the IRCC the one you already got if you can't have a renewed commitment certificate from your incubator

But I only have the support letter which I believe only is the last 2 page of the commitment certificate...

Yes, the organization should send it directly to immigration. My first ADR was asking them to resend it. So it's totally fine. Just ask them to send directly to IRCC.

Hi, is your LOS from angel or incubator?
(your AOR time is pretty fast, coz paper submission usually takes 2-2.5 years to get AOR, I wonder if it is because LOS from angel funds get faster processing time)

Mine should be incubator, but I think mine is not faster then others, its 1.5 year already after all. Previously IRCC mentioned they will accelerate the process of start up visa, hope it will going to be happen

Now The IRCC website shows suv takes 37 months to process, and based on the general AOR times for the past half year, 1.5 years is really fast for paper files. I've heard people who applied in July 2021 (by paper) still haven't got their FN yet.
