AOR Received.
07-05-2017
I know this topic is discussed elaborately. However, I could not find the tread. I submitted my application package to CIC on March 3, 2017 under CEC and would like to know how long CIC will take to approve my application if there will be no additional documents required? What is the current processing time? I received submission acknowledgement letter to apply BOWP on March 3 itself.

for Express Entry - 6 months
For Paper Application - 16 months
 
Go with 6 months. Be pleasantly surprised if it is done earlier :D
 
Thanks for your replies... I heard CEC has shorter processing time than FSW. Is it true?

Both average 6 months. The times are completely dependant on the application. It could be 2 months, it could be 18.

is it 6 months/ average after your AOR or once you submit it?
 
Also, how long does it take to receive an AOR once you submit your CEC application?


Thanks all!
 
KarhiK, I am about to apply for AOR in a day. We can network here and support each other here.
