When you've received the AOR?
And which form(s) you forgot to mention your UCI?
Hi, I applied under stream B( essential non-healthcare) TR to PR on June 5,2021 and still no response and no AOR . I contacted my MP and got a response saying my file is still a prospective file and that is why I am unable to link and the IRCC provided a temporary file number.
What are the next steps I can take? Any Suggestions would be highly appreciated

Prospective file means that they haven't started processing your file yet. You need to wait until your application is assigned to an office.
You can check to see if you can link your file every day or two. That's how you know that the processing is started.
Sometimes it can take a few days to be able to link after receiving your AOR. If after a few days to a week, you still can't link, raise a webform referencing your AOR & UCI, & ask them to look into it. This also ensures that you have notified IRCC of the issue just in case they make other time sensitive requests during the time you cannot link (usually they give you 30 days to reply to information requests).

Ohh okay, thank you for the suggestion. Can I call them and ask all these things generally or only the person who applied for it?
I just got off the phone with IRCC and hope it's helpful to you & other readers. I am in a similar situation except that I have had a TFN for a month but nothing since then (applied June 10th, Stream B). The agent said:
- PATIENCE IS THE BEST STRATEGY. Calling IRCC, trying to get an MP involved again, or requesting GCMS notes with no TFN or only a TFN will be unproductive because there will be no info for the MP to relay back to you and there won't be any notes on the file because it hasn't started review.
- There are many people still waiting (without any communication from IRCC; no TFN or AOR) for the start of processing but they should not be worried. Their applications will get processed. They should not be worried about quotas or timing as there are still many thousands yet to be started. They should not be worried about other applicants "passing" them or about quotas (based on application dates) because they will all be opened eventually under this one-time/special TR to PR program.
- Getting a TFN (temporary file number) only means, using her analogy, that your application is like "an envelope in the mail room that has been had a tracking number attached" which means it's there, but hasn't been opened yet. People who don't have a TFN should not worry -- their application is there -- it has just not had a tracking number attached (TFN), has not been opened for the initial completeness review and official start of processing ( which results in an AOR), and may not be opened yet for several more months.
- Some people will receive a TFN, and if an agent reviews it right away, there is a possibility that the file could move to AOR and processing quickly which will allow you to link. Some people wait with a TFN for months before any further processing is done.

Hi all, I really need your help in estimating how much time it would take to get e-copr. My spouse is in India, and this delays by IRCC driving us crazy with no exact timeline.

Jan 04th : submitted change of status from single to married via webform.
AOR: Feb 15th

Bio-metrics: Not required
ADR for PCC & Spouse related documents : Feb 15th
As I travelled back home, I applied new PCC. Asked for some extra time to submit the docs.
