Great!! Congratulations!!

This is a 2018 thread you almost confused me with your 2019 timeline. Just in case someone also gets confused it is good to write the year. :)
Thanks. And I will write the year onward . By the way, is there any 2019 forum for Quebec applicants ?

Hopefully someone can help clear this up for me. I see on the spreadsheet people adding in when they received SA and AIP. Are we to receive these both from Quebec and Canada?
When we applied for the Quebec portion of the application, I got a Quebec Sponsor Approval last year, along with a CSQ approval and then we received my boyfriend's OWP. Is this considered SA and AIP or are we still waiting for that?

SA and AIP are emit and send by Canada. There’s no such a thing as a Quebec sponsor approval. What you received was CSQ, which was processed by Quebec. But this is pretty much everything you receive from provincial.
If you send your timeline is easier to understand in which stage you are...

Omg you already reached the 12 months mark. You should absolutely call them and ask what is going on!

I've emailed and called them. All I get is "everything's looking fine, it's just taking longer than expected. And we can't give you an estimate of when it'll be done" Really frustrating, my partner and I had booked a trip in late september to see his friends and family that he hasn't seen in ages. Thought we'd be well past the completed stages at this point and now it looks like we'll have to cancel that trip.

Have you contacted your MP? If no, you should! They can help you!
