I only found this forum last night but already it has made my husband and I feel so hopeful for a faster reunion than we had anticipated. Our case is a little more complicated than most so I still anticipate that it may take longer, but hopefully not drastically.

Husband and 3 dependents in Nigeria - me in Canada.

I am trying to understand all the acronyms.

(Original application sent late January and returned in February due to missing information)

Application received: April 4
AOR for PA: April 26
AOR for Sponsor: April 27

We got Decision Made in ECAS this morning, just waiting for the SA emails and medical request.
I submitted my PCC and Schedule A via IRCC webform on 5/2 and got the automated received response.
Still waiting on the email that it's been attached to our file.
Slowly but surely making progress <3

You should receive an email soon! I received the SA email last night after showing DM in ECAS for a few days.

My wife might already have the email but since she's asleep I won't know for a few more hours, lol
It's been a struggle all morning not to call her and wake her up to check...
:p

my currently just says "we a reviewing the results of your medical exam".....though my wife as I'm typing is undergoing the medical exam now so CIC has not yet received the results

just submitted my wifes sched A just now through webform...hope it gets received quickly. just waiting on her to get her NBI clearance which should be sometime next week

I got the sponsor approval email stating that a separate email will be sent to her with instructions on how to upload May 2. I did assign my self as her rep but haven't received email yet for PA and there is no option in MyCIC to upload documents, so I figure I could sent the sched A now since it takes 10 business days through IRCC web from and I'll just upload it again if the upload options becomes available in MyCIC earlier
Did you send PCC as well or just Schd A form

Guys,

Quick question, On IRCC web form do we need to upload PCC & Schedule A form combined in one pdf file or separate.

I did not receive a request for Police Certificate although it is mentioned in the additional documents required for my country. I receive a request for medical exam and Schedule A though...

Is that normal ?

Not sure what is normal we only received request for medical exam, can you show us what the schedule A request looks like ? We are not sure if its system glitch or something else happening with ours, we old received medical request.

IRCC send us a correspondence on May 2 but we didn't receive any email or message. Today enquired with call centre agent and she informed it a request for Schedule A & PCC, so uploaded Schedule A & PCC via IRCC web form and receive below auto response. Question, anyone who submitted via IRCC web form receives same response.
