Thank you for quick reply.

I submitted my application on Apr 14th (from India) and reached Sydney on Apr21 and 550.00 CAD Demand Draft has been in-cashed on May1, 09....I am wondering, how much time have I to wait to hear from Sydney office? Yesterday, I enquired the same on local post office and didn't hear anything:(

Please let me know- Do we have any Contact number OR email address of Sydeny Office to enquire about our applications?

Unfortunately there is nothing else you can do. There is no contact phone number or email address for novascotia. When I was going through similar circumstances, my friend in toronto tried calling customer service in immigration processing office, they declined to entertain any request on applications sent to novascotia from overseas. With out AOR number you can not check ecas nor apply for caips. You can write to novascotia seeking clarification on response and send by courier or post. I think you will receive aor in six weeks time from the date of sending your application.

If the father married a Canadian citizen and she sponsored him and his kids, she would be responsible for the father for 3 years after he got PR and for the kids for 10 years after they become PR or until they turn 25 whichever comes first. If any of them were to go and take social assistance during that time, the Canadian sponsor would get billed for it.

See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3900E2.asp for those times.

Hi Narindar, thanks for reply but my question was not about 120 days requirement by CIC.
I would like to know, did you start counting 120 days from the date you got your AOR ??

HI, Did you mean how many days I have taken in sending docs ? If yes, then I sent docs in 5 days after getting letter from NS CIC.

You sent docs in 5 days it means, Once you sent your application to Sydney Office(waiting for appoval from their),in mean time you started/ applied for PCC and collected other docs for local visa office, so that you sent docs to visa office on time or before.....Correct me:)
