CIC made changes last year during fall to prioritize the family class applicants like digitalize the paper based applications on their end as well pilot for citizenship application online and earlier this year they hired some 60+ staff to process family class..so things are moving fast lately
Just now my PA status changed to “application received” from “in process”. What does that mean?

yeah, moving fast for new applicants, What did they do for applicants who applied in 2018, 2019?

their usual processing time is 12 months (for 80 % applications) you can order GCMS notes if your application process time line is more than 12 months.

Thanks. Can I expect “decision made” in next 2 months? Since you received decision made, you might have some sense on the timeline. My app is in cpc Ottawa
Too soon to say. Anyone who tells you a more specific range is guessing. Somewhere between the next 1-12 months would apply to most but not all files - of course that's too broad a range to be of much use.

Got pre-arrival letter today from CPC Ottawa, literally 3 months after getting "Application Received" mail from CPC-Ottawa! Phew!
Not sure if anyone knows, but any clue when we can expect the PPR?
