Oh wow - can’t be long for the rest of us with a jan ‘21 temp AOR then!!
I’m going by when the application was received. Most folks got temp AOR in January of 2021. I’m thinking we might get a permanent AOR around mid-May based on this (ours was received beginning of November). We’ll see….not getting my hopes up, LOL.

Right! I hope it won't be too long a wait for the rest of us late 2020 applicants as well. Congrats to those who have received their permanent AOR. Things are moving!

I think I'm going to apply for the IEC visa in the meantime. At least then I can start life there whilst I wait. Been waiting since 2020...
