Right, they just need to finalize which is when you get DM/landing letter. I don't think there's much to it after AIP. You have AIP which you pretty much could consider as DM.Here in Vancouver, interviews are 3+ months out so even if you don’t have DM you may beat me yet!
I called IRCC and the agent told me they actually have NOT made a final decision on my file, though BGC is done, so I guess that does mean ecas is wrong? Or that it’s indicative of just AIP, nothing more? Agent just told me to be patient and keep waiting, couldn’t say what more needed to be done or what the outcome might be — and to be honest made me nervous because he sort of implied it might be rejection :/ hopefully it’s just nerves making me think that.
I hope I do get a DM letter. If I have to wait all the way until a Vancouver landing letter I might lose it!

Exact same situation, ECAS has DM on both sides, AIP letter and pre arrival services letters received, but nothing now since June 7th. Having seen others get their DM/Landing interview letters straight after AIP, I am kind of disappointed.Here in Vancouver, interviews are 3+ months out so even if you don’t have DM you may beat me yet!

From the Vancouver Landing thread, it sounds like at least some people get landing letters about a month after DM on ECAS, but never do get DM letters. I guess we just have to hope...
Still waiting for AIP and mine doesn't say that background has started yet.
Guys , I just received the letter from Etobiko office . It says : it has been determined that you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence as a member of the spouse or common law partner in Canada class . Please note that a final decision will not be made until all remaining requirements for becoming a permanent resident have been met .
What’s that ???
What’s that ???
Congrats! That is AIP (approval in principle). It means you've been approved for sponsorship. You should expect to receive a "landing" interview next and that's when the process will be officially finalized.
Yes you can! There might be a waiting period to be eligible depending on the province you reside in.
Congratulations!!!! I am so happy for you! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you decision has not been made yet , but anyway we hope for the best .Congratulations!!!! I am so happy for you! Thanks for sharing.
