Received confirmation through ecas tracker that my application is now DECISION MADE :D
Was out of town the last few days and rushed home to find no COPR. Hoping it comes in the mail soon.

Much as I wish that was the case, it doesn't seem "Decision Made" on ecas corresponds with COPR being issued.

I'm beginning to suspect it's a delayed update that should correspond with my PPR. Anyone have a different experience?

It seems like after PPR and Decision Made, it takes up to a month for COPR. But for us, we got DM in February and it's going to be May before we receive the COPR. But I think our experience is outside what is typical for most.

CIC received our passports and requested docs/photos 7 weeks ago today and we haven't yet seen any change to ECAS or received COPR in the mail. Based on the spreadsheet, 32 days after PPR is the average, but there are quite a few people like us who are still waiting! Who knows how long it will take in the end...

=( Try and stay positive my friend. I know it sucks but it's all you can really do. I hope you hear something soon. I'm rooting for you! (and everyone else too!)

I'm also kind of concerned about amikety's itchy fingers, that doesn't sound normal. :p

Haha, I'm always anxious to get things done. I want everything done now so I can relax! I always hated the final weekend before summer vacation in school.

I emailed CPP-O this morning to request confirmation they got my new IMM 5669 (Schedule A). I forgot to list my rejected study permit - and you know they will catch that one! I don't want to be in trouble for misrepresentation for a simple mistake. Eek. Hopefully they reply. If not, they might get another form by courier this time, so they have to sign for it.

Of course, I've kept all my receipts and fax confirmations, plus BCC'ed myself on the emails I've sent them. I learned from my first marriage to document EVERYTHING. ;)

We received PPR on Fri April 19th, eCAS changed to DM on Mon Apr 22nd, and Ottawa received Passport on Tue Apr 23rd (applicant is not visa exempt, but lives in the US). So, yes, our DM appeared to have happened along with PPR.

I received my PPR along with another police clearance. Sent those in a couple weeks ago and then yesterday the Decision Made change. Hoping that this means it is in the mail. I feel for those of you waiting on COPR. I have to say these last few weeks have been the toughest in this process to this point. When I knew the wait would be long I was able to just let it go a bit but now that it's close it is killing me.

I KNOW the explanation for why MINE is taking so long! Not paying the RPRF upfront has added a big delay! :(

This is pretty much how mine was too, so i'd also concur that Decision Made on Ecas is a kickback from the ppr.

They've had my emailed passport for a week so i'm hoping another 3 and COPR will be on the doorstep :)

Hey All-
Just wanted to let you know that I received my COPR in the mail this morning!!! Less than a week after ECAS changed to Decision Made.

This process took 181 days, or exactly 6 months. My plan is to land tomorrow.

I can't thank you all enough for answers and support given in the past 6 months. I was quite the lurker on here and just recently started posting. Thank you thank you thank you!!
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
