If you already have a medical exam you can send along with application. With the recent process to go for a medical exam you need a medical exam request from CIC which contains UCI number. Usually medical is done after they request you to do so.

Hi everyone,

Could please someone clarify for me how to know whether you received AOR2? Recently, I got update on ECAS (PA), that they started processing my spouse's application, however, no official AOR2 received. Is that unofficial AOR2? I am very confused.

How to know when your background check started?

What is the next step after AOR2?

What does PPR means? Passport request?

How long does it take between AOR2 and PPR?

It depends on your local visa office, Mississauga are known for not sending AOR2 via email but you'll notice that ECAS (as yours has) will change to say that the apllication is now processing. You may find you get an email in a couple of days.

How to know when your background check started?
GCKEY will change to 'We are processing your background checks"

What is the next step after AOR2?
Decision Made on ECAS --> Passport Request --> Confirmation of Perminent Residency

What does PPR means? Passport request?
Yes, Passport request.

How long does it take between AOR2 and PPR?
This varies case by case, it could be weeks, it could be months.

I think GCKEY is down, not been able to access it this morning beyond the main page. When I click to check the full application, it just goes to bad gateway. :rolleyes:

I think it's a system wide issue for CIC - ECAS, GCKEY etc have all had issues this morning. You can log in to GCKEY but it just hangs and then flicks to the 502 page :mad:

At least they are working on the glitchy website and doing something I guess.
