AOR: Still waiting

Hi all, I'm starting to get a little concerned that we've been waiting over three months for our AOR. I sent an enquiry to IRCC on Jan 30 2023 but have had no response to that either. Very worrying.
Have you checked your SPAM folders just to see you didn't miss the email? This is quite long not to either receive AOR or some notification if a document is missing.

Hi,
Today my wife received the test invite but I did not, should I reply to the email and inquire or wait to see if I get the invite this week? Also is this normal? If so, why is it happening?

Hi I want to clarify the Citizenship application Question: Do you currently, or have you ever held immigration or citizenship status in a country or territory other than Canada (this includes your country of birth)?

My husband and I lived and worked in Dubai, UAE since 2014. Then landed in Canada as PR on Feb 27 2020.

Since we only have to declare between the eligibility period 2018-2023, does this mean we have to declare all of our travel even just for short term visits/tourism between that period? For example we travelled to Armenia, Korea and the Philippines (our home country where we hold Citizenship in) between 2018- 2023. Then for the times that we are not travelling outside Dubai should we just specify those dates as Worker?

E.g. Feb 2018-April 2018 - Dubai, UAE - Status: Worker
Apr 1, 2018-Apr 7, 2018-Armenia Status: Other (then in the notes section type in "Tourist"
Apr 7, 2018-Nov 19, 2019- South Korea Status: Other (then in the notes section type in "Tourist"
Nov 19, 2019-Dec 20, 2019-Dubai, UAE Status: Worker
Dec 21, 2019-Dec 27, 2019-Philippines -Status: Other (then in notes type in "Visit to Home country"
Dec 27, 2019-Feb 5, 2020 -Dubai, UAE Status: Worker


Does this sound right? Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for all your help.

Hello, Does the AOR email has the application number? The acknowledgement email I received did not have the number, I had to call them instead.
Yes it does , under the barcode on top right.

I one applicant in a group receives AOR everyone gets it... If you have already checked spam and deleted emails for "cic.gc.ca" call IRCC to verify your email id on the application and get the application number
Thank you for your response. I got the AOR 2 days after my husband received the AOR email.

Non-contemporaneous processing of family members may not be 'normal' but it happens (see e.g. a 2022 post).
In our case, the wife's test invite came about a week after the husband's.
Hope you get yours soon.
