Just a question, when you get an ADR, does that mean background check and eligibility is done?

Hello everyone, I am an outland applicant. Applied for PR in June 2024 and just today (after almost 9 months), I received the following email without any application/reference number. What does this email mean? Is it AOR? Please advice me on the next steps.

They have a very small quota and are really trying to focus on certain NOCs.

Due to cuts in quota provinces are being very careful and more strategic about who is awarded PAL so it is taking longer.
