Congrats fedex682, hopefully others will get theirs soon too, just be patient and positive
Anthony_nyc - just so you know AOR is the key. If you have received the AOR, you are good and it means CIC has acknowledged your documents and has almost begun the process, which further means that your application has been considered for processing under the existing 3/4 years rule. Documents received by CIC as per the records of the courier company is not enough unless you receive an official AOR from CIC. If for some reason the documents are returned by CIC back to the sender i.e. due to any errors in the application or missing document / information and if at that time the 4/6 rule comes into effect, then CIC's previous acknowledgement (as per the courier company and NOT an AOR) does not mean anything and the application resubmitted at that time will then be considered under the 4/6 rule. Hope this clarifies. That is why I always recommend people to send their application ASAP if they complete their 1095 days cuz the 1460 days rule may be implemented anytime and then they will have to wait for another 1 year plus the processing time. Moreover, whoever is sending their application these days must make sure that their application / documents are complete and free from any errors to eliminate every single chance of getting it returned to them i.e. review it 10 times or even have someone else review it for you i.e. extra pair of eyes before you mail the document out. Finally, send it by overnight courier to save on time, of course it would cost you much more than the regular mail but it's worth a spent amid the possibility of 4/6 rule getting nearer.
