It depends on when OINP is starting to take applications again.
I would suggest, get your profile created around that time frame only. at this time it looks like OINP would re-start in November 2016, so it's better to create profile around that time.

I have applied through one of the Canada's largest Immigration consultancy (Green & Spiegel) and as per them, OINP don't consider profiles more than 3 months old for the notification of interest. I was not able to find justification around it though.

You have sent documents for oinp to approve your nomination. It was i guess interest of letter that you got in February Not the nomination. Now the oinp will evaluate and then they will give you nomination. If that makes any sense. I hope it's helpful somewhat to you


Hi,

Today I have received File Tracking No and receipt from ONIP of docs and fee. Is this AOR?

Hi, Its been around 4 months my docs were received by OINP but still no update. How much more time I need to wait

Moreover, my CIC status is still showing No Nomination at this time.

Regards
Samra_
Yes, it shows "No Nomination at this time" because you haven't got your nomination yet.

It goes like this --->

Submission --> AOR --> Assessment Phase --> Decision Phase --> Nomination.

Congrats on your AOR.

Applicants who submitted their applications in October/November 2015 are still waiting for nomination. Your turn will come.

Good luck and all the very best!

December 16th 2016 OINP
AOR Received.

Hi Raj,

I received my AOR email with two PDF attachments. One of them is Acknowledgement letter and the other is Receipt. I have a few questions in this regard.

1. My file number and case number are : XHSW-1605683 and XHSW-16-118325594 respectively.

(i) I want to understand if number of AOR from my file number is 5683 going by the last four digits. Did other guys get a file number like this or my file number is totally different.

(ii) Since I received of Payment of OINP Processing Fees does it mean that my DD has been en cashed. Will they send a separate email if they have not en cashed it yet and that I need to send it? My acknowledgement letter does not say that my DD has expired. Do I have to write to them to confirm it?.

2. I had renewed my Passport and had submitted a receipt of the same when I sent my OINP application. I shall send all pages of my new passport photocopy to OINP asap. Now do my New Passport details have to be updated on my Express Entry Profile also?.

3. I had ordered a ECA report to be sent directly to OINP by WES during my application stage. I had sent the receipt of it with the application. Now should I enquire with OINP if they received it proactively?. Or would they ask if I need to do it via an email?.

4. Any other documents that I may have to send. Please advise


Thanks and Regards,

Pavan Kumar Yarala

(i) I want to understand if number of AOR from my file number is 56XX going by the last four digits. Did other guys get a file number like this or my file number is totally different.

No your file number is not different. Other have got file numbers like these.

(ii) Since I received of Payment of OINP Processing Fees does it mean that my DD has been en cashed. Will they send a separate email if they have not en cashed it yet and that I need to send it? My acknowledgement letter does not say that my DD has expired. Do I have to write to them to confirm it?.

Yes, if you see the fee receipt, it means that your DD has been cashed.

2. I had renewed my Passport and had submitted a receipt of the same when I sent my OINP application. I shall send all pages of my new passport photocopy to OINP asap. Now do my New Passport details have to be updated on my Express Entry Profile also?.

It is enough if you send the bio pages of your new PP. Also, mention that you are submitting this because you have renewed your PP. Send it via e-mail. Yes, if you see a provision in your EE profile, please update the PP number

3. I had ordered a ECA report to be sent directly to OINP by WES during my application stage. I had sent the receipt of it with the application. Now should I enquire with OINP if they received it proactively?. Or would they ask if I need to do it via an email?.

No, you need not send anything now.

4. Any other documents that I may have to send. Please advise

Wait for additional document request. Do not send anything else now (unless something has changed and you need to update OINP).


Thanks and Regards,

Pavan Kumar Yarala
First and foremost, please mask the last 2 digits of your file number. This is private information.

I think the justification is that, given the length of time they are currently taking to process the PTs, if they consider older nominations these may well expire before they get done processing the application creating another headache for them and the applicant.

They will assess all the documentation that you've submitted!

The AOR means that you've submitted submitted everything they've initially asked for and filled out the form correctly. Now they need to analyse all the documents you have submitted and the information you've filled in the form. They will also do backgrounds checks to make sure the information is correct (contact your employer, etc.). If they come across something that does make any sense they will contact you for clarification and/or to ask for more documents. The only way you can get rejected at this stage is if you've intentionally lied about something or provided forged documents - so only if you've done something really wrong/bad!

Once they are happy with all your documents they will make a decision... It's unclear to me how the decision is made, but basically if they like you then you'll get a nomination, if they don't like you then you wont. Things that will cause them to like you are being courteous in the requests and supporting information letters (this is debatable, there are several threads in the forum about this), doing a good job at explaining why you'd live in Ontario (ties to Ontario) and your NOC (whether or not it's in high demand). Fact is, it seems a bit unfair that you need to pay CAD 1500 for them to process your application and they can still reject you for no other reason than they dislike you, but that's life I guess.

If anyone else can add to this I'd be interested in finding out more information, so please do!

Hello,
At which point do they cash the bank draft? I'm particularly worried about the bank draft expiry date.
Thanks.

They used to cash the DDs before sending you AOR. However, since the DDs are expiring now, they are issuing AOR first and then requesting a new DD.

Thanks for your quick reply!
I've tried going through your past posts to see what was the additional documents they requested from you, but there are too many :)

Could you please let me know what was the additional documents they requested to you personally and to other forum members, you might know of (assuming the application package is complete)?

Did they contact you or anyone mentioned in your application? Do you think it's wise to ask them not to contact my current employer, but that they can contact my previous employer?
