Interesting that your PR says medical received before you got approval. That is not something I have seen before.

You won't see In Process with the sponsorship app. It will just flip to DM. I am thinking that maybe since you see the medical thing that you have been approved and a letter mailed and ecas was not updated to DM yet.

I do hope so... It says for Permanent Residence:

"We received XXXXX's application for permanent residence on April 11, 2012.

Medical results have been received."

For sponsorship:

"We received your application to sponsor XXXXXX on April 11, 2012. "

Got the good news today :D. After calling the Mississauga office for 2 weeks, every day, I finally got through to an agent at 3:30 pm. They found me in the system and told me that I got approved and that they are going to send the file to the VO soon enough. Also they said that the letter of sponsorship approval will arrive in 10-15 days. Thank you for all the help. :-*

Congratulations BBCCanada, that's excellent news ( and rare to see approval news during the week end on the thread...) - also a bit weird that it was sent to your wife and not you, but as long as you got the news, then it's great! enjoy the week end!

Cheers,
Sweden
