I've submitted my documents June 24. No AoR yet up this point. I just moved to a new address. Was wondering if AoR is sent thru post mails or email? Can anyone confirm? Thanks!
You can still call CIC to update address, they will give you temporary application number (as you didnt receive AOR) and with help of that temporary application number you can update contact information through webform.

I am waiting for AoR, and my parent want to visit Canada but I am worried about Biometric (as they dont have US Visa). What should I do?
1) Let them come here and apply US visa, not sure how difficult/ how long it will take. I have never applied US visa.
2) Ask them to stay there and wait for Bio, My application reached on June 12 (Approximately How long it should take from now?)

They wanted to be here for Christmas, and do not want to travel back to India only for BIO. Any suggestion?

2. I am planning to swtich jobs and take a break in between for 2-3 months, would that affect my file if i do it after the SA approval ??

Let them wait back home.

Why don't you apply for US visa, the appointments are pretty far out for the visa (2 months out). You can fill forms now and secure an appointment closer to when your parents arrive. I did the same thing for my Mother-in-law

Hey guys just wondering if you could help me with this...

My parents got their medical request. My dad is not physically with my mom now. He did his medical yesterday and my mom did hers this morning. They both got an e-medical information sheet.

Should I upload this online? to the account?

Just wondering if I should do that and the clinic send the results directly to ircc? any advise? Thanks

@YULIA-2016 @robertp

Hi - thank you again for maintaining the tracker. not sure if it needs to be updated in the tracker. my parents bio was done on Oct 9.

Also, a question need some guidance.

they did medical exams this morning. clinic said they use eMedical, so we don't need to do anything. they will submit once they receive all test results, likely in a week. i saw a few ppl said they emailed their results. is there anything I need to do on my end and how long normally it takes for the results to show up in myCIC.

Many thanks.
