my husband missed this question in fact, he did not make any choice but provided the details of the travels. My application was considered as complete and I've marked YES for the time spent outside the country, I did not provide the CIT0177, only the copy of the online physical presence calculation tool
Thanks Tipika.

So since it looks like there have been a lot of late December applications getting AOR's recently, it's possible that it could be our turn soon. So this is a good time to check your SPAM folders to ensure they're empty, and then set up a filter so that there's no chance of accidentally missing an email.

For gmail users, my method is to set a filter so that all emails from " *@cic.gc.ca " (without the quotes) have a red label applied, will never be sent to spam, and are marked as important. You can do this by going to settings, selecting the "Filters and blocked addresses" tab, and then clicking the "Create a new filter" link and filling out the form.

Other email programs will probably have a similar process.

Good luck everyone! :cool:

Hi all,

Now that I have sent off my application I am looking to completing my MBA in Australia. Do you know if I will be able to complete the exam and take the oath in Australia OR will I have to come back to Canada for that?
Thanks,
StuCan1

How long does it take to return the application due to various reasons, such as language proof?
