I'd like to share a little bit more about my case to either give other hopes or just be a reference since I believe my case is a fairly straight forward case.
I've been in Canada since my first year in university in Alberta (2011), have done almost a two-year school internship program, which led to a little delayed graduation in December 2016. Went back to work starting January 2017, then applied for AINP under "WORKER – NO JOB OFFER" in July and received nomination in September 2017. Applied for PR on paper in November 2017, got PPR April 2018.
My family and I don't have any military or government-related background.
The CIC account status didn't get updated after I got PPR in email and checked the ECAS to see a Decision Made has been posted.
