Application was sent through FedEx Ground on February 12, 2016. Guess it's time to wait two months for AOR1! :)

So we finally just found out that our representative did in fact NOT drop off our packet at CIC yet. I'm steaming mad, he said he did last week! Instead he is sending it via FedEx on Monday ugh :mad:

Ill make sure to change the date on the spreadsheet once I have a confirmation

This is a very noob question, but I didn't see any option on the profile page to add application status information on the left. I assumed it was limited to people with more posts, but perhaps there's something I missed if someone could please help. Thanks!

Representatives...…are they a blessing or a curse? Hope your application gets there safe. All the best.

Hello all. I am wanting to make a January 2016 spreadsheet. Did you just use google spreadsheet? If I make this spread sheet can anyone add their information on it? How does it work. I will follow the format you have for yours I am just curious how other people can add their information. Thank you

It is already created,best it is to add the link in your signature, then more people can see it, as after awhile links get lost in messages:

Go to your profile, on the left click on "Forum Profile Information".
If it doesn't show then you need to have more posts on the forum to get this option. I am not sure how many you need though.

I believe you need 10 posts in order for this option to become available.

Thank you, and thanks to the people who responded above as well.

Now I'll try and be useful. I came across this link to best suggested times to get GCMS notes:
https: docs.google.com/document/d/1MvePamES8FhOJ9fO4Nh8sf0pHhjvOUBTPWTzYdYXwp4/edit?hl=en_US&pli=1

It's about 5 years old but I think I'm going to follow the advice and get the first GCMS notes after AOR1 arrives in around 2 months (I'm in Canada so it's only $5 anyway). Do any of you have a tentative plan set up for this? Perhaps know of a better/newer guide on when to get GCMS notes?

Checked the status of where my application is, it finally got to Mississauga yesterday, but it has yet to be delivered. At least now it's in the correct city :)
