My spouse (the sponsor) received the email from IRCC on 20th Feb 2026, that the application is received. Any idea, in how many days will I receive the AOR?
Sponsor: Canadian PR holder with Indian Nationality
AOR: January 16, 2026
BIL: still waiting, as of Feb 26, 2026
submitted Biometrics fee AFTER PR application, used webform to summit the fee receipt to IRCC, Received confirmation from IRCC that Biometrics Receipt has been attached to the PR application, application tracker was updated by Jan 26.
Looking for community to help answer the following questions, any help is appreciated!
1. Any idea about the BIL timeline? Prior to end of 2025 the BIL was sent soon after the AOR to the sponsor. Can someone confirm if they've noticed increased time recently? We want to make sure we are on top and don't miss something from our end, but also don't want to contact IRCC if we can avoid it.
2. Principal Applicant (PA) is not able to create a account for application tracker, only the Sponsor has been since AOR has their UCI. Is this also normal operation?
3. PA is not able to link the PR application sent from the PR portal to their IRCC account using the information shared in the AOR email to the Sponsor. Is this to be expected? At which stage can PA link the PR application to the IRCC account?
