They couldn't find our application after almost a month after we submitted it and we could see everyone getting AOR's except us

What do you mean couldn't find it? AOR is usually a month-2 months after

Not anymore it's an average of 15 days after the application is received. The longest being a month!

Feb 28 2017, applying from the Philippines. And I've been speaking with a lot of people in similar situations, and some are stuck in Mississauga, and other even after our application has already been transferred. Basically my question is how do they determine which gets sent right away?

Under the new process they are actually holding files in Miss longer so they can do a high level look over of the application and make sure everything is all there and good to go. Have you called

I've seen a lot of 2017 applicants receiving AOR after 30 days.

As far as i know they are trying to get alot of older applications out of the way. They are working on apps received before April 21, 2016. Therefore it takes longer now to do new applications.

I am however a March 2017 inland applicant and i received AOR1 16 days after they received my application. If its been very long call them to make sure it was not returned to you.

Ok if you provided an email account then you will get notifications there. people in the forum get it anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 weeks. If that time passes then you should call them to see what's going on.

Few people said they waited 2 months before AOR was received. Keep an eye on junk mail as well both email accounts

 

[KandyK]

That is exactly what we are doing. Sigh this is so torturous and we have just begun! :[

Yes it is :-/

I appreciate the information, but your application was done with old sponsorship system. You must of misunderstood my question and my concern, I wasn't complaining but was more looking to be informed.

i am sorry that I misunderstood it takes time
