Still no update on mine.

Still no update on mine.

IrishinCanada - which address you sent your application to? I mean the PO box one or the courier address?

 

[rajan123]

My application was returned on July 13 due to a missing form (exactly 3 weeks after my first submission) I sent it back to Sydney and it was received on July 19. My bank draft isn't cashed yet. Anyone else waiting for the fee payment to be cleared? I see some July applicants already received AORs, but I guess they must take the money first?

Has your money order cashed? I checked mine.. not cashed yet, my application was receieved on july 26th. I guess money order application has slow processing trend.

Happy news for me as well! Got the email with a confirmation of the payment Clarence and the Exxxxxx number. Is this E0000xxxxx number the AOR?

CIC is on a streak!
I got my credit card charged today.
Application received on July 30. 18 days!

One major concern.
My credit card company just upgraded my card and the card I used on the application will not be valid in another 10 days.
Does it matter? Do I have to give them a new credit card number?
Does CIC use the same credit card details for other future charges? Or was the authorization only for the initial fees ($550)?

you are good to go, they have their money. you signed the autorization to allow them to charge your CC for the amount of $550. for other fees I think you will have to pay by money order($490 of RPFF). and I think you are lucky that they charged you now cuz if that credit card de-activated by your bank that would have been an unfortunate mess.


congrats Ionag, and thanks for having shared the letter with us

Hello All,
I wrote that my requested visa office is Buffalo, USA. However, I heard that Buffalo office is now closed and the visa is processed by Ottawa (CPP-O) office. Now, my question is whether my PR application will be transferred to Ottawa automatically? My CC was charged on August 14. Please help, and let me know the answer.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Yes..it will go to CPP-O.

 

[nikkit]

people on other threads are saying their AORs take 3 months and they come from CPP-O.. Ours come in one month and they come from Sydney CIO..

do you think they changed the system where CIO issues AOR and then forward to CPP-O directly for processing instead of more completion reviews?

*ps who's gonna update our list?

 

[seekr]

Congrats to those who got it in the last few days. I am updating the list below.
Good luck to those in waiting..

Thanks Rosty for the reply.
I am glad for the timing too, I could have imagined the mess I was in if there was some more delay.
I see you are still waiting for AOR, despite being a June applicant.
There appears to be a switch from July applications that drives out faster AORs from CIO-NS.
I am sure the application timelines will get rationalised at CPP-O. (with first applied first served, which is fair)

you are good to go, they have their money. you signed the autorization to allow them to charge your CC for the amount of $550. for other fees I think you will have to pay by money order($490 of RPFF). and I think you are lucky that they charged you now cuz if that credit card de-activated by your bank that would have been an unfortunate mess.
