Topic: Didn't receive ackowledgment letter yet!
Posted by samba10 (2) 02 Jun 2008
Hi, I mailed my PR application about 6 weeks ago. Do you know how long it takes before they send out the acknowledgment letter? Is there a way we can phone them and ask if they received my application? Thanks for the help!

I sent mine on April 07,08. I emailed them( buffalo) after a month. they replied " we send back your app if not complete. otherwise, we will send your notifiaction in 20 weeks!"""
so I guess 20 weeks makes it 5 month just for IA. no phone number available.

You also need to know that there is a change going for the applications submitted post Feb 27, 2008. Read the details on http://cic.gc.ca. You can see on this forum that for anyone submitting on or after Feb 27 hasnt received the AOR.

just FYI. I got my application back yesterday(06/02). They returned it for missing I-20 & some gap in history( their mistake).
RD stamp on my appl was April 10 and return date was May 16th. so 5 weeks i guess.

So when you submit the application again, does it start from April 10th or the date you re-submit your application?

can u check if your bank draft has been cashed or not . If it is then "Good News" your app is in QUEUE if not then you should wait for it to return back.

I submitted my application on 4th April and I haven't heard any thing from them.
Also, the money order has not been cash out either.
The only thing we can do is.... Wait.........ing.....

Hi, I heard that ppl who have applied after 27th Feb 2008 are all waiting , but few days back i did some search and have found that 2-3 guys got AOR even they applied after 27th Feb and a couple more had thier money orders encashed.

Can you plz give a brief profile of yours, one thing common in those applications was all of them were in USA or canadian graduates and been here for last 2-3 years.

It is good to know that they are processing the files even for those applied after feb 27th (although, it is sluggish)
