You may be getting your SA in mail (I've noticed few people getting it instead of email). Better to call ircc and find out SA approval status. People mentioned that it takes about 2 weeks for the mail to get to us. Goodluck(re)Submitted Application: June 14

I did receive AIP or SA Letter (same thing, right?) via email. Good luck to you too!You may be getting your SA in mail (I've noticed few people getting it instead of email).

SA is different from AIP. SA is for sponsor and usually way earlier stage than AIP.I did receive AIP or SA Letter (same thing, right?) via email. Good luck to you too!
thanks for the correction, edited the original postSA is different from AIP. SA is for sponsor and usually way earlier stage than AIP.
According to https://www.canada.ca/en/services/immigration-citizenship/helpcentre/glossary.html#a it looks like AIP, but the letter does not contain term "approved in principle".It has been determined that you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence as a member of the spouse or common-law partner in Canada class. Please note that a final decision will not be made until all remaining requirements for becoming a permanent resident have been met. These requirements include medical, security and background checks for you and, if applicable, all of your family members, both in Canada and abroad, even if they are not applying to join you in Canada at this time. You cannot become a permanent resident until you and all your family members have met these requirements.
It is AIP indeed - Its just a term coined by IRCC.I am actually confused about the difference between SA and AIP.
Below is a part of the letter I received few days back:
