Fantastic!! You land next week! Congratulations to both you and your spouse.

Congratulations, @gunnar777! Great news!!!

It’s frustrating, no matter where you are in the process, isn’t it? In my case, we got SA, AIP and sponsor’s DM, all in one day~ and based on previous applicants’ experience, I was expecting a PA’s DM to follow within a day or two. So i got my expectations up. Dumb mistake on my part! I’m...

Hopefully, it will come soon. I check ECAS and GCKey at least a dozen times a day~ as if that will move it along... hahaha. Patience definitely isn’t one of my virtues.

You haven’t got PA’s DM yet either, have you @Geno.uss?

Let’s keep each other updated. When there is movement in ANYONE’S file, I get super excited, knowing that the CIC processing wheels are turning once again.

How is our group of 5 or 6 (that received DM on sponsor’s side and waiting for DM on applicant’s side) doing? My husband passed his eligibility, I got SA and DM on sponsor’s side~ all on May 10~ and a month later, we’re still waiting for DM on applicant’s side. Any updates from the rest of this...

It’s exciting to see movement in files happening! Congratulations! Another step completed. Yes, now you are waiting for DMs for sponsorship and for your application. Hopefully, this next step won’t take too long.

6 years is too long to not see family, Lithiumwow. Yes, hopefully your wait is over soon.

It is frustrating, this waiting period. My husband’s app date is Nov 13th. He got the eligibility email on May 10th, the same day that I received notice of sponsorship approval on ECAS. We thought his DM would within days, and it’s now been a month. Anyways, other than obsessively checking...

How did you get the interview appt so fast? That’s great! Congratulations!

I’m curious what are the countries of origin for the rest of us who are waiting for a PA DM. My husband is from India.

Thank you for this detailed reply. My husband is from India~ perhaps this is one of the countries that takes longer to get security clearance~ it took weeks to get the PCC initially (to attach to the app) from the embassy. Hopefully, things move along soon for all of us waiting. Did the other 4...

I had always assumed that once the sponsor receives DM, then the PA follows within 24-48 hours. It’s interesting that there are a number of us that are waiting at this stage, isn’t it? @Geno.uss, can you give us some words of wisdom on what you think the stall is? Or is it just due to delay in...

Husband (PA)’s background check started March 11/19. He handed in the certified criminal record check from his country’s consulate with the application.

We are in the same situation. I (sponsor) got DM on my side on May 10th, and my husband (PA) also received AIP on that day. It’s now been three weeks and we have heard nothing since then. There seems to be a lot of us right at this very stage. We are in Vancouver office jurisdiction~ is this the...

Our GCKey also still says reviewing eligibility, even though there is a letter for PA at bottom of webpage, with a link stating “eligibility passed”. And the GCKey also says that background check is still in process. My husband just passed his medical (finally!) today, so we are hoping for his...

Have you asked the rep for the GCKey link? If you call in and use extensions 1-1–2-3, it verbally provides the exact same info as on your GCKey

I (Sponsor) got the SA by an emailed PDF attachment (addressed to me), and my husband (PA) received the “eligibility passed”/AIP letter (addressed to him) through a link on our GCKey account. And we also got DM on sponsor side. All on May 10th! It was a great day!

We got our Sponsorship Approval and AIP, with DM only on sponsor’s (my) side. We are still waiting for my husband (PA)’s DM. So SA and AIP can be issued before both DMs.
