How long does it take for AOR once you apply online EE FSW?

Hi all,

If I apply for EE FSW online as soon as I get ITA then how long does it take for AOR? My IELTS will be expiring soon that's why.

I heard that IELTS needs to be valid till AOR not until ITA. Am I right?

Also on a plus side I have an Ontario nomination if that helps.

Invitation to Apply (ITA) comes first and then based on this ITA you apply for PR application. In most EE cases Acknowledgement of Receipt (AoR) is available in a matter of few mins and some other cases it comes in a day or so.
So when you apply for PR your IELTS should be valid. Once you have applied after a day or so your IELTS results expires you should be fine.
In my case
ITA was 16 Mar 2018
PR application submitted and AoR was 6 Apr 2018
IELTS expired on 30 Apr 2018
