Hi there! What is your timeline? Have you done biometrics yet or has it been complete silence since medicals in August? Don't worry, I am sure it is in the works! We had about 8 months of silence until we heard anythign and everything came at once! We just got decision made yesterday and pre-arrival and biometrics last week! Hang in there, it is all coming soon! :D x

Unfortunately it will need ot be done again. It was the same fo rmy husband. he did them in 2016 but we did them again Oct 16th. ANd hmmm yours is at Mississauga? They are usually quite fast. You should be hearing something for biometrics soon and perhaps get pre-arrival like we did all on the same day hours apart. But also, I heard Quebec applicants have been a bit delayed so it could be that too. Hang in there, you'll hear soon! x

Hey guys! This is my first time posting on this group. My application to sponsor my wife was forwarded to Paris august 28, but we haven't heard back from them. I got worried that the application might have got lost or something, so I emailed the Paris office to ask them if my application reached them but they just told me that the application was within processing limits... Most people from what it seems most people get their AOR2 fairly quickly. Any suggestions?

Welcome! Don't worry. We had almost 8 months of silence and when they got back to us, we got pre-arrival and biometrics the same day followed by decision made and passport request! (My timeline is in my signature). Hang in there. It is a long wait but the silence is normal which sucks but I hope is comforting haha. x

What bothers me isn't the silence per se, its the fact that we haven't received an AOR2 and its been almost 3 months.

The email that it is sent to Paris is okay. We didn't technically get an AOR2 either. I just saw in ECAS after they sent it to Paris that it started processing and I used that as our AOR2 date.

I have yet to receive anything to do with Paris on ECAS.
This is basically what my ECAS looks like
  1. We received your application for permanent residence on May 27, 2019.
  2. We started processing your application on August 20, 2019.
  3. We sent you medical instructions on August 21, 2019. To avoid delays, please provide us the information requested in the letter as soon as possible. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
  4. We sent you correspondence on August 23, 2019. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.
  5. Medical results have been received.

Not every VO sends AOR2 and I don't think Paris sends AOR2's because I haven't seen anyone say that they have. We just received an email March 8th saying that it will be sent to the Paris VO and then I noticed a week later it was in process on ECAS which looks like it was in process for you (Aug 20th) before you received the email. Don't worry. I'm sure they have it. :)
