Could someone please help me understand how come the CIO is no longer issuing "acknowledgement of receipt" (AOR) but instead go straight to "positive eligible review" (PER)?

I got a reply regarding my application yesterday from cic.

It said that they do not have any record of my submission.

Then i called them and an agent informed me that they are still opening the applications received on 8th of july. So i should wait till next week for any reply. I told him that some applicants after 11th july are getting there c/c charged already. So he informed me that there are many agents who open and assess the applications. So its normal that some which are received later are opened early.

But he confirmed that if i have the courier receipt which shows the application is received by there office on 8th. It will certainly be there. Only after the application is opened they put it in there computer. So , my application is yet to be opened.

I think it applies to some other applicants also who have received the same reply as me. So do not worry and have a little patience.





Thanks for the info..This is whats bothering me..Some later date applicants got their cc charged already but some earlier date applicants has no news yet on BD>...so they could be on a fast reviewer? while others like us might be on a slow reviewer? oo -ohh
