I suggest you check your junk/spam folder first and if there’s nothing there, try calling IRCC and they should be able to let you know what’s going on.
2025 PR Application Timeline (Protected Person)
- Thread starter summer salmon
- Start date
I am assuming that the year is just a typo.
An acquaintance of mine applied around end June 2025, I think it was around mid-September that he received the acknowledgment of receiving the application from IRCC. It had a temporary application number (starting with XG)… and nothing after that (at least till last week).
Reading through this thread, apparently all of us who applied June 2025 to end of 2025 only received the XG email, no AOR for any applicant June-December 2025.
As per IRCC's estimated processing times, there are 69,700 applicants ahead of June 2025 applications.
I'm just thinking loud here.. no official information..
Upon launching the one-time initiative, IRCC maybe will logically first clear the applicants up to Dec 2023 as a first patch of this initiative: (around 23,100) - this is the number of files ahead of Jan 2024 applicants as per IRCC estimated processing times.... hopefully this will take IRCC up to 3-4 months in total...
Then, IRCC maybe will process the 2024 applicants (30,700).. this is again from IRCC estimated processing times.. (53,800 ahead of Jan 2025 applicants - those ahead of Jan 2024 applicants: 53,800 - 23,100 = 30,700) ..... Again, hopefully the 2024 applicants will be cleared within 4-5 months..
Then IRCC will start processing 2025 applicants
(97,200 - 53,800 = 43,400)
(97,200 applications ahead of Jan 2026 applicants) - 53,800 (backlog until Jan 2025 = 43,400 (number of 2025 applicants)...
As per IRCC processing times, this will hopefully be done within 7-8 months (6,000 application a month)..
Processing +6,000 applications per month seems too optimistic.. I don't know if IRCC have put in place all the necessary resources/tools/synergies that will make this possible...
Again.. it is possible that some files will be processed faster than others... with less complex security screening depending on country of origin.. minimum travel history.. single.. in Canada.. how busy is the processing office/officer ... etc.. several factors to consider here..

@bakrub07
Thank you for confirming that you received your AOR. Did you receive the BIL (Biometric Letter)
And if it's possible, let us prepare a shared Excel file keeping our names, even a dummy one if you want, just to make sure that we are all in the same boat.
For me:
I applied on July 22, 2025.
Temporary Application number: October 23, 2025.
AOR: March 17, 2026
Yeah they atleast tell you about your application status in que or completeness check start.do you have your temporary file number ?
