January 9th and still nothing... no AOR or ECAS status or linked CIC account. I am starting to freak out hahahahah
I wouldn't worry, you're still within the average for the month. I'm going to update the tracker now to include averages and such like we have in the 2018 November / December tabs.

I'd expect that yours updates within the next 7 days and wouldn't worry about ECAS as mine didn't work till the day I got my AOR.

Thanks for the support everyone. I know it’s a matter of patience and going through this thread is both helpful and stressful when you feel like you’re falling behind hahahahahaha. Let’s keep the positive vibes rolling just like lovemywife suggests :) *more AORs and other updates on their way*

I have exceeded the limit in linking the application. Lol so I have to wait again for 24 hrs.
Question: all the information needed to link the account, is it all the PA's info?
Thanks.

Yeah, I had the best luck with the guide from the tracker:

1. Press Link application to this Account
2. Permanent Residence - Family Class (Spouses)
3. First Name, Last Name & DOB - Fill PA's details here
OR
3. Application Number and Family Name - Copy/paste application number from email (including the F) and enter PA's last name
4. Select one of two options next: Place of Birth or Passport Details
5. Fill PA's info for the option you selected above and not both at the same time
6. Put the Details of the City where the PA plans to reside after getting PR, this info should match with what you put in form IMM0008
7. Put Marital Status as the status you chose in your application.
8. Put '2' as the number of members in the application for sponsor + spouse (add +1 per dependents)
NOTE: Sometimes putting MARITAL STATUS as SINGLE also works.

Just got Medical Request today (March 1, 2019)!

But I still haven't received the instructions for the Biometrics which I'm getting worried about.
Do we get this through e-mail or through GCKEY message?

You should have a message at the bottom of your GCKEY:
https://i.imgur.com/n5GujIA.png

Your medical request should come up there too titled:
Medical Report - Section A Client identification and summary (IMM 1017E)

So I was finally able to link the app because I locked us out lol and it shows my husband's biometrics from 2016 when he tried to visit me. I guess we will be skipping that step since it says they expire in 2026. So for anyone who has done them before you may not need to do them again!

Hi Guys,

I have a question regarding all the supporting documents for Parents like passport, marriage certificate and Birth Certificate and stuff,

Do we have to certify it as a true copy or they just need photocopies of documents?

Unfortunately, he'll still need to give them:

If you apply for permanent residence
You need to give biometrics.

If you’re between 14 and 79 years old, you need to give your fingerprints and photo for all permanent resident applications. Even if you already gave us your biometrics and they’re still valid. This includes:

Hmm so strange.. they have his country and all but the details I mentioned earlier are mine.. I've tried calling and can't get through. I wonder if this will set us back or something.. thank you for your reply!
Mine is the same as yours with the PA's info on the form (as mentioned because he's being examined, not me) but my address, phone no. and email address appear below that because I am his representative.
