Now on ecas it is showing decision made for both Sponsor and Applicant. However statuses have not changed on GCkey side, only see AIP letter.

Question... should GCKey say something after you see Decision made for applicant on ecas? Or is it totally possible for GCKey to not update.

hello, my wife just got AIP. but she is currently visiting india. she has work permit and visa. im reading this thread https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/inland-app-got-my-owp-but-no-aip-yet-can-i-travel-outside-of-canada.310693 and now fairly scared. is there any issue with her being out of country. I understand that thread is more about denial of entry but with valid visa there shouldnt be a problem correct? Also she has been living in canada for past 4 years just visiting for 2 weeks. I mean we did travel recently too however i never saw that thread lol
There's always a risk. It's border agent dependent. There are many reasons to leave the country while your application is processing, e.g. work travel, visting family, etc..

Your wife requires approapriate status in Canada in order to be allowed entry. If your wife has an OWP I believe her status is worker and she should be allowed in. Again, border agent dependent!

Yes thats ok then. Border agents dont just reject for literally no cause. This isnt US. She has all the valid visas and permits. Should be ok. Thanks.

Same here!
I'm finding it hard to gauge how long it will take to receive the final approval because everyone's timeline/situation is different.
Did anyone do their interview in London?

I have a question about the interview...
Do they give us the PR card right after they finish the interview or theres something else after it to actually get the PR card ?
I'm still waiting for the interview email, but I'm trying to plan a vacation :)

In the interview letter they will tell you to notify them if you have travel soon after the interview date. You get the PR card in 50 days or so. I had to reschedule my interview appointment to after an upcoming trip.

That was a nightmareeee lol, they requested something that does not exist haha
So I went to the Brazilian consulate and had to speak with the vice consul (very hard to to do that), then after a few days they wrote an official letter and stamps from the Brazilian government explaining the same that states in my military card!
Then my representative and I called IRCC and had a long talk about it, apparently it's all good now, but it delayed the process a bit...
If that happens to your husband, don't think twice, go STRAIGHT TO THE CONSULATE, they HAVE NEVER done that but they will find a way to help...

Once, I saw your note about it... I was following it. He too has never been in the military, so hopefully it will be all good.

Thank you for letting me know about it tho, fingers crossed it wont happen

Hopefully they won't ask for it, they don't do that anyways, cause it's impossible to get an updated military record if you never had to serve the military right haha...
But if it happens just go to the consulate!
Good luck!
