My app started processing July 22, the date my Copr was issued (on the COpr) is July 25th, so it took 3 days to approve me. ECAS was changed after the thing had already been mailed to me. I'm in Calgary so it took around 5 days by postal mail.

Got my COPR in the mail today via Canada Post… it came in a brown government envelope :) Going to land tomorrow :) I am cheering for everyone in April to get theirs too ASAP!

GOT MY COPR IN THE MAIL TODAY!!!!!!!! GOING TO DRIVE TO THE BORDER TOMORROW, AHHHHH!!!! YAYYYY!!! Good luck to everyone!!!

Congrats to you too! I was freaked out because I never got a passport request but I guess the COPR is in the mail :)

lol, i sign on to ecas like 4 times a day just to make sure it still says decision made, LOL #neurotic

So is there no email to accompany the Decision Made? Or do papers just show up in the mail now?

Have you guys been living together for 12 consecutive months? If yes, then you're actually already common-law under Canada standards and she should have been listed in your application for PR….

ok yeah, right before sending my application, I pre-emptively got a brand new passport renewal (good for 10 years). Fingers crossed for everyone!

weird. i thought a ppr was a crucial part of the process? i would love to spend a day in their office to see the total crapshow that is their job lol

My online status changed to "In Process": "We started processing your application July 22, 2014"

When/If CIC requests more information or passport request, do they send you a mail letter or an email requesting stuff? I haven't been contacted by CIC at all during the entire process except AOR and SA so I was wondering if they were to contact me, how would it be?

Not everyone has a big wedding with tons of photos. What's important is that you provide enough supplemental information if you don't have many wedding pics. We had 4 wedding pics of our civil ceremony with two witnesses, so we provided hundreds of pages of skype chats, emails, facetime...

We didn't send any photos of us with any other people except two pics of the wedding day with our two witnesses. I would send in chat logs, emails, internet communication and travel ticket copies if you can. If you don't have the original airline tickets from visits, you can print out your email...
