A question to the experts please: I Have applied in September, got the temporary number: xf ........ in November, checked the status with the temporary number many times and the answer was always: the review process of your file not yet started; until the mid-may where I was told that my number (xf.....) doesn't exist, the agent cross-checked with my name, DOB, etc.... and told me: yes your name is here and your application has disappeared ....... he confirmed that the payment is still there but no file in the system!!!!!!!!!!! he said he will send a not to Sydney asking for the reason.....maybe the file was returned. since I didn't receive back the file, I recalled it today (after 2 weeks ). I got the same answer: your file is not in the system and we sent a note 2 weeks back to Sydney but still no answer !!!!!!!. Does somebody had the same experience or can tell what happen???? Thanks
Only this happen when they return return application but there should be a note by the officer why they returning

I received passport request about a month later, but it could be longer or shorter. Spreadsheet shows people who got DM same day and others who are waiting 3 months. But it looks like 2-4 weeks is the average.

Hello everyone, I’m outland September 2020 applicant, my file was received on sept 24th. After that I received no updates at all, no AOR. I called IRCC they gave me temporary number in May. I raised so many webforms but i got standard reply that they have all the documents but processing is slow cus of covid. I’m really worried it’s already more than 8 months. Any suggestions??

Hello, I just wanted to ask about the online application account thing, my papers were "in process", then it changed to "application status change/update" and now changed to "submitted" does anyone know what this means?

Does anyone still waiting to get AOR 1 ? Every time we call IRCC they just reply that our Application is opened on 29th March and its matter of waiting. I don't know how long we are supposed to wait. It been more than a year since we both are apart. I am really frustrated with processing delays.
I’m waiting for AOR 1. Sept 2020 applicant, only received temp file number
