expect to get your AIP within a few days and then DM on your side. shortly after you'll get a landing interview email. I'd say you're a few weeks away from being done! what's your timeline?
Does DM always mean AIP? Or is there a chance it's not?

I just checked Ecas and have DM but no information on what the decision actually is :)

Hi,

So, I get my landing appointment email today!! I will be landing in Montreal on 14 March.

I have a question about dependents. I gave birth to my baby girl after my application is sent. I sent her birth certificate from Webform. So, for my landing interview, should I bring her?

And also...

Two photographs are required for you and each person in your family in Canada included in your permanent residence application

Does this mean a photograph of me, my sponsor and also my baby?

Thanks

if you haven't received a procedural fairness letter, then it's a positive decision. just wait for the landing email.

on my ECAS, both sides changed to decision made on Feb 22, 2018. But on my (applicant) side it says started processing your application on February 22, 2018. Is it possible to process and decide my application on the same day?

Hi there, what do you mean of ECAS? Is it an online account on CIC? MyCIC?
ECAS and myCIC are two different websites, just google ECAS and visit the first link, it will ask you to provide some information (date and place of birth, last name, etc...) and you can see how the application is going for both applicant and sponsor. It's less detailed than myCIC but it gets updated first. Also, you can check the status on ECAS even if you have a representative but not myCIC

Congrats, your sponsor will NOT need photos. Only the applicant and any dependents on the app. Since you sent the baby's stuff after on webform I guess she counts now in the app as well so photos of you and her I believe.

Does that mean I should submit the background declaration form for my wife's parents and siblings as well? I am the sponsor and we dont have any children yet. So is it enough to submit the background form just for my wife?
I don't know if this was answered. Too lazy to go back and read.

Schedule A - Immediately family only : Immediate meaning your husband/wife, father, mother, brother and sister, children (if you have children). Do not enter info for your relatives (extended family like cousins, uncles or whoever)

Police Certificate - Only the family members who will accompany you.

Thanks! Even though my baby is born in Canada and has a Canadian citizenship? Does it means that she has to attend the appointment too? She is only 6 months old.
