Hi Steph C congrats!... I wonder what happened to our papers... do I need to do something or what? Please advise guys. It has been a year yesterday!
Oh no Fireluck.. your PPR should be soon. I will bet it's next week! We have a Magic Rooster tab on the bottom of the spreadsheet.. it predicts who is next to get PPR based on Sponsor approval. You are near the top.

There was a big group of applications that was received in Manila on September 27th. I think yours just missed this shipment. Yours is probably in the next shipment which they should be opening
Please contact your MP to ask them for help at this point.. because it's beyond ridiculous for you. You're the longest waiting person on the whole spreadsheet.

Ordering notes is a good idea, but since you didn't yet get PPR I don't know if they will say anything. Your delay is due to super late sponsor approval.. like mine was. But the other steps I guess are according to Sponsor Approval date. My notes came a week before my PPR and they were pretty much blank. However, it takes a month to get - mine took 20 days, and so if you get PPR next week it could give insight on your file a month from now.
I got my partner to print, sign and scan the consent form.. he emailed it to me, then I emailed the consent form, the E-payment receipt, and the application form. Just to repeat the links that BC Girl wrote:
Fill out this form and also make a payment of $5

The sponsored person needs to print and sign this form, then scan and email it to the Sponsor in Canada.

Include: the completed ATIP form, receipt of payment ,and consent form (total 3 documents) in an email to:
ATIP-AIPRP @ cic.gc.ca
I ticked "Access to Information Act", then on the 3rd question "Email"
4th Question "No.. Consent Included"
next section "I am a Canadian Citizen etc.." then "Public" no need to include proof if you have a Canadian address.
Section C make sure you tick "electronic files" so as not to delay your processing while they photocopy your actual file.
Did your husband submit an original Advisory On Marriage with the application? Most people forgot to include one because they included a marriage certificate, but you really have to have an AOM too. Most people get a request for their AOM along with their PPR. Maybe if you didn't include it you can order one for your husband online so that when he gets his PPR next week he will already have it. Teleserv you can order and pay online.. and it's really fast. It delivers via Air 21, 2 days only to Davao.. not sure about the other places. You have to order a CENOMAR to get an AOM. There's a form, then an online chat thingey where they ask you a few questions, then a payment page where you can use a Visa card to pay the 500p.

But the good news is I think Manila Embassy is starting to process people really fast once they open the application. I have seen people getting PPR's and DM's all in the same day. And I think the medical is faster now too, possibly only a month if your husband needs to re-do. I bet once your husband gets his PPR it will be very fast and you will be hearing more good news within the next 2 months
