We received pre-arrival mail on 31st January and something similar last night. This information may be useful for applicants of other categories of immigration, but when spouse is already settled in Canada, instead of sending such mails, i believe, it would be better if IRCC concentrates on speedy processing of the applications. When they take almost 3 months to update the online status after receiving additional documents to - we are reviewing the additional documents you submitted, we have started processing your background check - reading the following mail is not a very pleasant experience.

Hey

Hey hey! We won our appeal Aug 3. Case reopened in Sept. Bgc started Oct 25. my husband also in ss. Do you know how long your ss took?
I think our background starting end of January 2018...then was chosen for SS and sent to local office where they requested more documents. Which we sent in may 2017....I'm guessing anywhere from 8-12 months

what does that mean?
The appeal is allowed. The officer’s decision to refuse a permanent resident visa is set aside, and the officer must continue to process the application in accordance with the reasons of the Immigration Appeal Division.
Appeal is successful. The visa officer's decision to refuse immigration has been overturned. Visa office is directed to resume processing of the immigration application.
Did you get this decision letter? Congratulations!

Our appeal was almost 2 years. In Saskatchewan. Then about another 5 months until my husband got his Visa.
Hi Mary, we had our full hearing date for Nov 28,2018, I went to Regina and my lawyer had to cancel the hearing due to his health. We just got an email that our hearing will be june 24,2019. That trip to Regina cost me just over 900.00 dollars due to 3 missed days of work, 2 nights hotel, gas, food. We just had our 3rd year anniversary, just spent our 5th new years together..this immigration truly hurts us physically, financially and emotionally. But we have a strong love and we will get through this. Blessings to you all.

The way it was explained to me is that you can reapply after an appeal and CIC will take your money for submitting a new application, but once it goes to the visa office for eligibility they will evoke res judica without even giving you an interview. The only time they will consider an application after an appeal is if you have had a very significant change in your relationship which is very hard to prove after having an appeal dismissed.
OK so it seems both appeal and reapply will be refused anyway if there is no change. What do they consider a very significant change in relationship?

I created another thread about significant change. Feel free to participate:
