Not got the AOR yet and Received line is still there. Not sure whats happening.
I am in the same boat. I talked to the agent and she confirmed as long as I have the update on ECAS I do not need any AOR and I should read online.

I am sure most of you know this but thought to post it anyways. As per CIC's website, status "In Process" means:

Application In Process
Your file has been sent to the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) office closest to your home for processing.

The CIC office will complete the necessary steps for a citizenship judge to make a decision on your application. If additional information or documents are needed, the CIC office will contact you.

If you are between the ages of 18 and 54, you will have to write the citizenship test. The citizenship test will determine if you meet the language and knowledge requirements for citizenship. You will be notified by mail about the time and place of your test. Once you receive your acknowledgment letter and the booklet called Discover Canada by mail, you should begin to study for the test. Applicants who are 55 years old or older and minors are not required to take the citizenship test.

An interview with a citizenship judge may also be required. Should this be necessary, you will be notified by mail about the time and place of your interview.

Application Withdrawn
If you wish to withdraw your application, you must advise us before a decision on your application has been made.

I recently called CIC and they informed me that my file hasn’t yet sent to Local Office. Online status shows case is In Process
I believe that if you don’t see your 2nd line it means that something changed on you case. I also read that if you have child application along with yours and if child app status says we started processing your application on so and so date that means your background checks are completed and you file has been moved to local office …. Not sure …

since day 1 ecas was updated, I never had the received (payment ), all I had was in process with a link attached to it, once I press in process I get the received, we sent you and in process lines...

so how to know if the file was transferred to local cuz I never got the 2 lines once I sign in
Your "received line" must have being there at a point. I am guessing you missed it because it disappears fast. I saw mine one day and the next couple of days I checked it was not there. If I had not checked when I did, I would not have seen any "received line" on my ECAS as well.

Hope this helps..

Hi guys..

Is there any formal proof that disappearance of the received line means your file is transferred to local office?

No, the only option will be to call CIC and check with them.

Hey,

I was trying to make (ATIP) CBSA online request; but I dont know what should I write down in following box.

*Please provide details regarding the personal information being sought (i.e. competition number, file name or number, location, etc). Please be as specific as possible. (maximum 1,500 characters)

Do I need to scan and attach biographical page of my valid and expired passports and PR card with online request?

Any advices will be highly appreciated.

Regards

Hope it will help

Received line has disappeared for me too. However I wasn't able to pull up my record during a last few days , my best guess is they were probably updating the records.
