BTW even though the status says they have sent us the Canada Study Guide and AOR by mail on Jan 9th, we never got it. Any idea what to do?
Did you get the AOR by email ? If so, you won't be getting the book by regular mail. Your AOR email as well as ECAS should have a link where you can download the pdf or audio version, and order a physical copy free of cost, should you choose to. IRCC no longer sends a physical copy, unless you do not provide an email address on the application form, in which case they will send your AOR and Discover Canada by regular mail.

Copying the link here for your convenience:

Edit: also would like to mention again that since your parents are > 55 years old, they are exempt from the test.

I think they do send you a physical book, or at least that is the way I interpreted the message. I may be incorrect here :)

My ecas says: We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on January 23, 2018.

I'm certain that they stopped doing that. I've been tracking applications since October, including mine and have the same message om my ECAS. Never got a physical copy.

That message simply means that they send you a link to download it, or you can order a physical copy if you like,
