Yes, there have been cases of "fake" pre arrival letters.
After IO says Refusal at interview, DM can come up to 4 months later....depending on the Visa Officer want to taunt you or put you out of misery quickly (next day refusal letter comes on gckey).
Refusal at interview is never a mistake, but sending a pre arrival can be a mistake.
You are now in same position like me, waiting for negative DM. Issue now is appeal or reapply...or withdraw and reapply (they dont get satisfaction of refusing you)

Did you get a fake Pre Arrival too?

I would think positive (but prepared for the worst as well). The Interviewing officers are humans too and I believe they can do mistakes too, why would they taunt us?
And why we got this letter of Pre Arrivals after 15 days of the interview? Does computer generates this for everyone or after a particular event has passed or cleared?
What is your time line?

Hi Folks
The following is the time line of my Wife's Outland Spousal Immigration Application

Feb 01 - Application Sent to Sydney NS
Feb 04 - Received at CPC Sydney NS
Feb 23 - Started Processing Sponsorship
Feb 24 - Acknowledged of Receipt (AOR)
Mar 18 - Biometrics Requested
Mar 19 - Medical Requested
Mar 19 - Biometrics Done at Chisinau
Mar 24 -- Sponsorr determined Eligible
Mar 24 - Forwarded to Paris Visa Office
Apr 01 - Medical Done at Chisinau
Apr 02 - Started Processing Wife's PR
May19 - Interview request Bucharest VO
Jun 02 - At the interview in Bucharest VO Visa Officer Announced "Rejection"
Jun 17 - Received Pre-Arrival IMM 5801 came from Tunis VO
After the Interview I was gearing up for the Appeal but I think God saw the genuinity of our relationship and instead of Refusal helped us to a receive a Pre-Arrival letter.
Any Comments?
Is it a done deal or some more bottle necks to go through?
Usually how much time it takes from Pre Arrival letter to PPR?
Thanks a lot for your time
Best Regards
Update to my time line
Today I was able to connect my wife's application on GcKey and found some additional information
April 06 _ Medical passed
June 21 - Interview completed (Though it was conducted on June 02nd)
Back Ground check is in progress
No Decision Made yet and application is still in Process

Interview officer cannot make a mistake when they tell you that you are refused. They are not human beings, quite the opposite.
They enjoy taunting.

Nobody knows how pre arrivals are generated, but they have been known to mistakenly be issued.

Not true. Get help.
I agree with Armoured
The interviews are recorded on the camera, even if they announce "Refusal" in the interview, they do watch the interview again & again before issuing any Refusal because they do not want to loose the case in case the applicants opt to appeal, they can loose their credibility if the appeals are successful repeatedly. And I am sure there are their managers/supervisors too to review these interviews before refusing.
In my case the Visa Officer said to my wife that she will send an "Refusal Letter" in two weeks, it has been three weeks now, we instead of getting a Refusal got Pre-Arrival letter, even for a moment if we think that it was a mistake then why they started doing Back ground check and showing "In Process" on the on GcKey it is showing that the Interview was completed on "June 21st" though the interview was held on June 02nd. Also No decision has been made yet its showing "Your Application is In Progress"

Order your gcms notes immediately. Hopefully it was a different decision but pre-arrival is not a guarantee.
Hi dear Armourd,
Not sure what your real name is, but I am really very very thankful to you for your honest help by motivation and guidance you are providing to others. I just want to say a big Thanks form the deep down of my heart.... we need people who are positive, honest and kind .... I am the same too, I believe in God and that belief brought the result in my email within 20 days of categorically announcement of "Refusal" by the Visa Officer instead I got the "PPR" just a few minutes ago
With Kindest Regards
Remi
