July applicants were only getting AORs from yesterday, I think September may have to wait at least a few days (possibly a few weeks!:)).

Thanks man alot, that is what i was searching for:

New AOR:
"your application has received a positive final determination of eligibility for processing"

Old AOR:
"your application is being recommended to the visa office for a final determination of eligibility for processing"
@canady,
Great point you noticed.
This is good news for the people with AOR in hand.
It means VO will not take much time to put mapple leaf in PP, providing Medical, PCC are delivered correctly.
Hmm as I was thinking, that once POST June applications start hitting VO, rest of the process will sooner than anticipated.
Yeeeehoooo......Buckle up boys, you need a plane to catch to mapple leaf country.
 
can you include the 2nd AOR for the preJune 26 applicants,if it is possible.

Thanks!

Pre 26 June 2010 1st AOR Sample

Dear Sir

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada in the Federal Skilled Worker class.

The Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism issued instructions which were published in the Canada Gazette on November 28, 2008. These instructions specify that only applicants who have an offer of Arranged Employment, applicants who are legally residing in Canada for at least one year as a Temporary Foreign Worker or an International Student, or applicants who have work experience in certain listed occupations are eligible to be processed in the Federal Skilled Worker class.

Based on a review of the information you have provided, your application is being recommended to the visa office for a final determination of eligibility for processing on the basis of:

( ) Work experience in an occupation specified in the Instructions issued by the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism and published in the Canada Gazette on 28 November 2008.

( ) Arranged Employment in Canada
Please note: The requirements for Arranged Employment are outlined on: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG72.asp#factor5

( ) Legal residence in Canada as a Temporary Foreign Worker or Legal residence in Canada as an International Student for at least 1 year immediately preceding the date of application.

You are therefore requested to submit a complete application to the XXXXXXXX visa office.

Any future correspondence should be sent to this visa office. Your reference number is located below the date of this letter. You must quote this reference number in any future correspondence.


( ) This correspondence also acknowledges receipt of your payment dated XXXX in the amount of XXXX Canadian dollars. Your Payment Receipt No. is XXXXX. Please keep a copy of this letter for your records and quote this number on all correspondence relating to application fees or refunds.

( ) This correspondence also acknowledges receipt of your Fee Payment Form (Imm5620) authorizing CIC to take payment of processing fees using the credit card details provided. Please be informed that we processed a payment of XXXXX Canadian dollars on this credit card (ending in XXX). Your receipt number is XXXXXX. Please keep a copy of this letter for your records and quote this number on all correspondence relating to application fees or refunds.

Submitting your Complete Application
Go to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/skilled.asp to download the Federal Skilled Worker guide and application forms.

Your complete application must consist of the following:
• A copy of this letter with the reference number above
• Application for Permanent Residence in Canada [IMM 0008]
• Schedule 1: Background/Declaration [IMM 0008 SCHEDULE 1]
• Additional Family Information [IMM 5406]
• Use of a Representative [IMM 5476] (if applicable)
• Schedule 3: Economic Classes [IMM 0008 SCHEDULE 3]
• You must submit all documents required by the visa office. Visa office-specific forms and a list of all supporting documents required by the visa office are available at: www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/skilled-mission.asp

When submitting your complete application to the visa office, you must advise them of any changes in your application (e.g. birth of a child, marriage, new occupation or employer, submission of an Arranged Employment Opinion approved by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada, change of address, change of e-mail address, change of immigration representative, etc). Please include a letter identifying what the changes are.

NOTE:
Until the visa office has received your completed application, it will not accept, respond to, or attach to your file any interim correspondence, EXCEPT:
• Change of address, including change of e-mail address;
• Change of immigration representative;
• Request for withdrawal of your application and refund of fees;

The Federal Skilled Worker application kit states (page 18), “Consult the Visa Office specific requirements now to determine what documents you will need to provide once your application is recommended for processing at a Visa Office. If you are not prepared to submit full documentation to the Visa Office within 120 days do not apply now. Visa Offices are strictly enforcing the 120 day rule and will not provide extensions.”

Note: Once the 120 days has elapsed, a final eligibility of determination will be made based on the information on file. A negative determination of eligibility for processing is final and will result in the closure of your file. Documents must be submitted in a SINGLE package.

Once the visa office has received your complete application, it will send you an acknowledgement of receipt letter which will inform you of the next steps in the review of your application.

It is important for you to learn about the steps you need to take to get your credentials and qualifications recognized in Canada. Citizenship and Immigration Canada recommends that you review the resources on the Foreign Credentials Referral Office's website (www.credentials.gc.ca) and the Going to Canada portal (www.goingtocanada.gc.ca) for helpful information about living and finding work in Canada. If you live in India, China or the Philippines, you can access information on free in-person assistance at http://ciip.accc.ca

Thank you for your interest in Canada.

Pre 26 June 2nd AOR Sample
Dear Applicant

This is to advise you that your application for permanent residence has been received at the XXXXXXX and that a file has been created for you. Your file number appears above. Please note that this file number is different from the one that was assigned to you by the Case Processing Centre in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. You must quote this new file number in any future correspondence.

Before your application can be placed in processing, a determination will be made as to whether or not you are eligible for processing. If your application is not eligible for processing, you will receive a letter informing you of the reasons for the decision as well as a refund.
 
Hi Raquel!

Glad to know that there is one more Portuguese here! :) Nice!

I sent my application by regular mail (carta registada com aviso de recepção). I chose to sent it by regular mail because there are still lots of vacancies for 4151's.

But I'm starting to feel worried that it hasn't been delivered yet.

Did you have any feedback from CIO? Do you know if they will contact us by e-mail or by letter?

Tell me more. What are the prospects? Do you have relatives in Canada? Where are you planning to settle in Canada?

Good luck for you too! :)
 
thank you so much!How i wish that the October applicants will be able to get their AOR already! Because,I am a November Applicant..

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
