if you look at the spreadsheet for January applicants, it seems Jan applicants received their AORs sooner than the applicants from other months. Last year In 2019 it was 53 days I believe, while applicants from other months had to wait a lot longer.
Ya but I don't think it was short cus of the fact it was January. I think it was cus they didn't have as many apps last year as they do this year. I don't think they would just speed up just cus it's January (though I do hope I'm wrong lol)

I actually started from 2018 and went all the way down to 2015 (they asked for previous five years, so 2015 is the fifth and final previous year) and I stopped there.

Filed my taxes from 2015 to 2018
That's 4 years of tax filing

But now I'm worried since I did not even include 2019 in that question.

Can anyone please confirm if this is ok??
I hope they just look at the fact that I filed for 4 years and understand that I cannot file 2019 at the moment.

In retrospect, I should have just include 2019 and done "Required-YES" and "Filed-NO"


CAN SOMEONE CONFIRM THIS FOR US PLEASE?
I feel the same way. I did the same. I hope they dont return it after 3 months of waiting.

I have done exactly the same way. Did not mention 2019 at all. If we look at the way that question has been phrased, I think we should be fine.
All the very best to you! Hope you receive the right outcome with no issues.

Guys calm down. The instructions mentioned that the application will be processed if the minimum aspects of the application is found. A year of taxes not mentioned is not a deal breaker as they will go through your CRA file anyway. Just like a typo in name or email. They too want to be done with our applications ASAP.

Unfortunately you will only find out if you get an AOR (around 2 to 3 months after they receive your application) or if they return it to you as incomplete (which would also take 2 to 3 months after they receive your application)

Hey Mudassir, you should post in the February 2020 thread. I believe that maybe more helpful for you in the future when you are tracking with your peers
