It took 5 days for me to receive the SA email after eCAS changed to "decision made." I think you're totally within the normal timeframe still.
As @ryester says, the fact that they're proceeding with the medical request at all reads positive as well.

@Missionquebec posted an interesting link before:Sorry, by eCAS I was referring to the line about PA's application being processed. I guess in my head I was thinking that that line is effectively confirmation that they have actually started the background check, but maybe I'm just making too many assumptions now.
I totally forgot that your GCKey showed background check from the beginning though! You certainly are the exception to almost all the rules!
To be honest, my totally vague mental theory also took MR into account as an additional factor in all this, but it's really not worth explaining -- I think at this point I'm actually getting tired of speculating!

If I was to follow that guide I'd be at stage 5 and awaiting my PPR... That would be nice
Edit: I should add that this comes from a website that talks about the express entry programme.

Woah, yeah, this is totally wacky. AOR within 24 hours...? Is this for some other category of PR application? How can we sign up for this option instead?@Missionquebec posted an interesting link before:

That makes sense. According to your information, only "straight forward" cases are processed in Mississauga, and straight forward cases should take less time.
I posted that link to let you know what is IP2 process means, not for time frame. haha@Missionquebec posted an interesting link before:

I completely understand your situation. I am a sponsor in Canada and my wife is in Aus ( she is not Aus citi) where I worked before. Technically, we do not have any family in both places. I wanted to go for delivery but as a PR I should be inside Canada during processing ( some may argue no need). She managed her c-section alone and she is trying to take care of the baby alone. My case is pretty straightforward too as she was processed as "non-accompanying " person during my PR application. Her medical valid until Dec 2019 too and I have a permanent job in Canada. The reason why I am saying this to you is that there are cases and you are not alone. The only solution is " Government should let spouses come to Canada during PR processing" I understand the risks in this way, but there are a lot of genuine couples ( not a marriage of convenience for PR). At least the government should ask us to keep some amount of money in government account as a guarantee fee to process this type of application. So what about people who do not have money to do this? I do not have an answer for this question

Congratulations! If you linked your application in GCKey account, the medical request form will NOT be sent to you in email. IRCC will upload the form in your GCKey account. Please print the form and take it with you when you do the medical examination. The form has PA's information filled up already.got the SA email

thanks for the info. I was like killing my mailbox refresh button for the last three days
But generally you will get a notification email every time when you have a new message on GCKey. So you should have received a notification email anyway... Unless you're a sponsor and you linked GCKey to PA's email, then you should check PA's mailbox as well.thanks for the info. I was like killing my mailbox refresh button for the last three days
