Dear (SPONSORS NAME),

This letter confirms that your application to sponsor a member of the Family Class has been received by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) on 2024-08-23.

Is this normal and is this sufficient to apply for SOWP?

This seems to be a new glitch - check out the below (if you login can you see the UCI anywhere?): https://www.reddit.com/r/ImmigrationCanada/comments/1fk4ob6/_/lr04pbo

Nope no update for us either. I have read that this stage is the longest :( Based on the link that Alex00 shared (just above yours) it seems like the March Inlands are just getting their background checks back so maybe late this month into Dec/Jan we may expect to see something!
