In AOR - Anything I should do while I wait. Also, birth cert for G0 obtained after app submitted
Current application status: App received by IRCC on 4/21/2026 - AOR received 8/1/2026.
Hiya. I want to make sure I am using my time wisely while waiting to move from Received to In-Process. I am G2. G0 is my maternal Grandmother. I supplied IRCC with the following docs:
-G2 (me)
-Birth certificate
-Marriage license (with my new last name)
-Passport
-Driver's license
-G1 (mother)
-Birth certificate
-Marriage license (Ancestry, no certified copy)
-G0 (born 1927)
-Canadian Census from 1931 (Ancestry)
-US Naturalization June 1946 (Ancestry)
-Marriage license December 1950 (Ancestry)
Additional context: My grandmother used a different name when entering the US. She changed her name from Edna Genevive Dolan to E. Sally Daly or Edna Sally Daly after getting married in 1950. The Naturalization paperwork appears to be backdated to 1946 having been created after she married my Grandfather.
Finally, as of last week I now hold a certfiied short form copy of my Grandmother's birth certificate from Nova Scotia Vital Statistics thanks to my mom, who worked with them since March to obtain it. I wanted to get it in case IRCC asked for it during processing.
Any suggestions or things I should look out for while waiting?
Thank you for reading :)
