Good morning all,
Just an FYI that may or may not calm the nerves a bit: I just spoke with an agent at IRCC who told me they are currently working on applications from August 31st. I know that someone on here has already received AOR but it might help to have an idea that generally, they haven't started on September applications just yet. Cheers

Is there a way to call IRCC and get such information?

Also can we call them and ask them about filing information in forms? or they just tell you general stuff?

Hello Everyone,

I have sent my application and it was received on Sep 6. I called them on Friday, the agent has given me a temporary File no. such as XF000123456
Does anyone have any idea, how long would it take for them to send me the actual file no. in my email?

The call center is notorious for giving out misinformation and incorrect advice, so I wouldn't.

Up to 8 weeks

It takes upto 8 weeks to get the file no. counting from the day our application was received. But they have already assigned me a file no. The agent told me, that your file no in your email would be the same that she gave me, except they will remove X from it, as X stands for temporary.

I don't really get what your point is. Yes, they gave you a temp file number but it will take anywhere from 2-8 weeks before you get acknowledgment of receipt. A temp file number is not AOR...up to 8 weeks is a timeline i was referring to in terms of getting AOR

Anyone whose application was delivered on September 15 and got AOR.
My app was returned first time bcz I forgot to write address in one box on form imm5406. Hopefully not the case this time

You probably have about two more weeks to wait for AOR, they're just wrapping up August AORs now and starting September.
