Hi all, are we supposed to receive a mail or email when they acknowledge receipt? The good thing is I am seeing people who submitted around my time receive theirs so I am hopeful that mine comes soon.

In the absence of a mail or email, how would one check the status online - is there a website specific to this? I have been logging into https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/account.html but I am not sure that is the right place (or it is, I just dont have any updates.)

Still waiting for AOR. Application was received on 04 September. Single applicant. Worrying about they will return my application. I saw end of September application received their AOR... Is their any way to get any update...

Still no AOR for me either. Application was delivered September 4. Been checking ECAS and my information could not be located. I checked today and it shows application received. Still no AOR though.

Seems like they dumped our application somehwere in the corner and forgot about it.
 
Hello everyone!

I'm new at participating in the forum. But I've been reading this thread for a while.
So here's my information for everyone to know.

Application received: 23 Sep 2020
First line on ecas: TODAY! 22 Jan 2020


Family application (me and my husband)
Country of origin: Portugal
Living in Montreal
Physical presence: 1290

We had our application returned to us last August (after waiting 8 months from submission), because we did not have one! box ticked. It was hard to believe we did not see the little box after reviewing it so many times. And so frustrating that they returned it to us 8 months after, just because of that.

Hopefully, this time we get our AOR! Fingers crossed! Good luck everyone!

Quick question after my last post:

Today there's the first line "Application Received" for me. But when I try to check the status with my husband's name and birth date, it shows nothing. It's a family application (just me and him).
Is it normal that says Application received for me, and for him there's nothing?

I plan on calling them today.

Your feedback is appreciated!

Usually when you applied as a family if one application is incomplete the entire package is sent back. Seeing your application online is a good sign even if you cannot see your husband's application yet. Give it few days and check again I don't think your husband's application has any problem.

I will do that and let everyone know here what happens! Thank you very much for your reply!
