Let me add a little self promoting in the new Philippines thread.

My wife has been here in Canada since the end of November 2008 now.
After 2 1/2 grueling years of immigration problems.
Feel free to check out my profile for our timeline experience.

If any of you are planning on visiting in/or around Davao city feel free to contact me as my wife and I bought a 2 bedroom condo there and have been renting it out mostly to other couples that were in our situation.

I know this is a little bit of self advertising however as a couple, renting out a nice fully furnished apartment on a short term basis is a much nicer experience than staying in hotels.
Feel free to check out our online ads for more details.

wow. i didn't know there's a new thread for Manila Timeline. anyway, the original one is really a big help for all the filipinos. Unfortunately not in favor of those who can't understand our native language.

Keep the posts going. I'm sure this will also help all aspiring applicants..

They don't use couriers for correspondence. The only time they use courier is when they send the visa, and they've been using DHL for that.

We sent our application on September 17, 2009
Received in Mississauga on September 23, 2009
Received letter approving sponsor dated October 13
Now waiting for AOR and request for passport.

I am concerned as the mail in our area is very unreliable. About one half of the mail folks sent me, I never received. I notice the average time for AOR after sponsor approval is approximately one month.

Can anyone tell me if CIC actually uses regular mail for these important documents or do they use LBC or another courier?

Regards,

Raymond.
