Thanks good luck to you too!

Yeah I had to hand mine over too, lucky I had the licence number recorded and had a photocopy. I'm not sure how qld works but when I phoned vicroads I just needed to quote the licence number and answer a few questions. Still waiting for it to arrive though..

Hi. Can anyone that is going through the Sydney office please tell me how long they had to wait to receive approval after sending off the COPR forms. How long was the wait until you received your PR card?

 

[InfoLock]

Mine was three weeks. Received mine today!

 

[bigredmoose]

InfoLock, can you pls clarify? You're talking about the Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR), correct?

The PR card normally comes several weeks after landing in Canada.

 

[InfoLock]

I sent my COPR about 3 weeks ago I received the final PR forms on the 28th.
You don't receive a card as such you just get the documentation stating the dates that the COPR is valid for that you have to present together with your passport when you land in Canada.

I received AOR today...does that mean that application has been transfered to Sydney office?

 

[InfoLock]

If you login to the CIC site it should say that it's been transfered.

 

[ahmadtajwer]

Online status shows... "Application Received". I guess they'll send another letter/email to confirm once the file has been transferred.

Hey guys! Is there a speadsheet for Sydney 2015 applicants? The only one I found was from 2012-2014... Our application has just recently been transferred to the Sydney Office and is "In Process", I was hoping to have an idea of how fast things should move from here

Hey BeeQC, I've been doing the same research as we will be applying in the next couple of months. Over the last year from the people who have posted on here I've figured a realistic estimate is 5-8 months. But if your has been transferred already I guess you can minus almost 2 months of that for the time it takes to approve the sponsor.

Hi ,

I am PNP applicant and have received my AOR on 23 March 2015 and nothing after that. as I compare myself with others (having different visa offices) have already got there visa. I am the only one who has received AOR in March and heard nothing after that. Australia visa office is a big pain.

I don't think there is one looking on the 2015 outland spreadsheet there are only a handful of Sydney applicants...

Thank you kiwi01 and kangamoose!

I hope you're right, kiwi01... if we get approved in 3-6 months I would be soo happy haha

Btw, I'm assuming you're a kiwi... My partner is a kiwi, too. Did you send your police check with your application? We didn't because they say not to, but I think we probably should have...

 

[kiwi_girl]

Ours took about 2 months! Much much quicker than we were expecting ;D

We didn't send a police check, only the authority for the CIC to request one from NZ Police.
