Hi guys,
As we never really received an actual AOR however both applications (PR and OWP) have been linked to our online account - I will assume that all is ok with ththe submitted applications.
Now my question is that if any requests or messages related to the applications come from CIC, will they abe sent via email to the applicant, the applicant, or will they just show via our online accounts messages section?
Thanks for the help!

So my application was returned to me today, apparently a couple of things were missing. However, my application contains both things that have been marked as not included.
-Most recent Notice of Assessment
-Insufficient processing fees for the Application to Change Conditions and Extend Your Stay in Canada as a Worker.

I have the receipt for the payment attached to the application to change conditions. Which, on the IRCC website it is $100 for the Open Work Permit.
And my husband's most recent notice of assessment was also included, attached in the correct place as marked on the checklist.

So i'm slightly at a loss for what they're saying they were missing from the application, when they are both clearly there and i'm currently looking at them.

Hi open work permit is 100 but you gotta pay for the open work permit holder fee as well it is 155 so both is 255. Then the notice of assessment i think you have to make sure line 751 is included not sure if it is 751 but it is the line for total income annually. I hope this helps. When did u submit your application?

Was able to link the spousal application with the UCI number that I already had before, not the new one CIC gives you in the AOR email.

I also linked the OWP application on my first try. Funny that is says that the OWP application was received on July 17, 2018, not on the 24th.

Well, the wait begins, again...

Which means you may get your OWP early, a person I know, his OWP application date like yours, he got the OWP early then others. lol

I was wondering about that, too. My account says the OWP application was received June 26th, but I didn't mail it til June 30th, and it was received in Mississauga July 3rd.o_O
