Same here.applied last Saturday and no AOR yet...
Are we all Saturday applicants so? Maybe they don't work on Saturdays and our files ended up somewhere on a big pile... this is really weird :-\
Did you try contacting them guys?

I would wait for some more time.... I read many people still did not get AOR after several days ...
I came across a few people as well, one person submitted his/hers file on March 11, still no AOR but the application status have changed to open, quite weird.

Hope they will look into our files soon ;)

I hope to get the AOR soon.
My WP will expire next monday, and I want to try applying for the BOPW before (although I know there is confusion about it, but at least better to try)

Im totally confused... Well I applied on March 6th 2015 (20:00) and I got AOR on March 7th 2015 (9:30 )... I was thinking its automated...I know few people got AOR in < 5 minutes and now its a days and weeks ... that's really strange ...

I thought it's automatic too... And the thing is that the approx processing time is counted from the day you receive your AOR...

Good luck to everyone! ;)

Just a guess!
But does it depend on credit card bank? Whether bank has given immediate approval for the transaction or a delayed approval.

Maybe, but we got a payment receipt and money was deducted from the credit card...
Hopefully they will dig our files out soon...

how did you guys manage to get AOR after 5 minutes ?

FSW applications are paper based right ? not online.

I just realize that Easter monday is also a holiday for government employees, so maybe this might explain why no AOR comes in.
If the AOR is not really automatic...

So we're not using the FSW2014 checklist (that's still up on the CIC website) anymore then ? Because in that checklist, some of the documents are required to be submitted in its original format.
