Yeah, for some it can take slightly longer, but like I said, usually it's by the next day at the latest. Mine was approved within a few hours of eligibility check, then the email came the next day. Physical copy of the permit came a few days later. Congrats. Really glad it worked out for you!

Not long. Usually takes no longer than a few hours. Certainly by the next day.

That's dependent on the applicant's background (i.e. country of origin, travel history, etc.). For some it's relatively short, for others not so much.

Background check can still be in process after AIP.

It's certainly a ride with many ups and downs! I'm about to log off this forum, not think about immigration, and enjoy the weekend. Haha.

Leave it blank if principal applicant has never been issued a UCI number. They will be issued one with the opening of the PR application.

I meant envelopes. Many people do use them because it keeps everything, at least initially, tidy. I used them without issue. I also used paperclips when necessary. And yes, everything was in order as it appeared in the checklist.

Don't do this. Just place everything in the order listed on the checklist you just discovered, haha. It'll help avoid mistakes/errors. Speaking of mistakes... In case you haven't come across this on your own or on this forum: make sure you pay the full $255 ($155+$100 fees) for the OWP. One of...

Because these are two separate applications, there will be some overlap in documents. In other words, some things, like passport photocopies for instance, will require duplicates. Make sure you include everything in the PR and OWP application checklists. If you do, you'll notice the need for...

Very lucky! And as others have said, it won't in any way negatively impact the application. They're checking for incredibly serious issues. Wishing your partner a speedy recovery!

This forum is a small sample size of those going through this immigration process, so no, not everyone from the October pool has gotten feedback. I'm one of those here who hasn't received much of anything. I know several others outside of this forum who are in similar situations to mine. You...

Yes.

If I read correctly, your husband was unemployed when the app was submitted. That's certainly not a disqualification, but in these instances IRCC likes to see evidence of past employment, as well as some sort of explanation/proof getting a job in the future won't be a significant issue. The...

It can take time for the system to get updated. Frustrating, I know. Like I said, information for sponsor should come soon.

Sponsor approval is separate. I'd check ECAS to see what the status is of your sponsor's half. If no decision has been made yet, it will be soon. Hang in there, you're almost done!

This is what I was wondering since they were asking about his financials. While there is no income minimum, they do want to know that a sponsor is able to -- or will be able to -- provide for the principal applicant and dependents if needed. (If you two divorce -- not saying you will! -- he's...

You're good so long as you submit the medical by the date listed. Congrats!

Ugh. Can't believe it's such a long wait for Vancouver. Not looking forward to that, lol.

So sorry to hear about this added stress. Hopefully we can do what we can to help you out and get you past this extra hurdle. Are they asking for proof of cohabitation from a specific date range? I've seen them ask for specific months/years in other cases, which is why I'm asking. Knowing a...

I'm not sure. I do remember they were quite happy since OWP was approved earlier than expected.
