Well everyone, here is our update!
We never heard back from anyone at the Canadian or New York offices. It was a bit discouraging, because we also never received any big "Approval" email, like another person said they had.
Buuuuuuuut!
We just got my husband's Confirmation of Permanent Residence in the mail! It hasn't really hit either of us yet. Now we're just trying to get a new job lined up and he'll be on his way over for The Big Move, likely in January ;D
Congrats!

I've been living in Canada since 4 years ago (I was on study permit), so I just crossed the us border in Niagara falls and re-entered Canada!
Everything is going well!

Hello, pls help me. Igot 2 emails from manilimmigration, first one is pre arrival services (just information about getting ready before arriving Canada) and the second one I got yesterday is pre arrival as well but it says my spouse is eligible to register for pre arrival services. What does it mean? We didn't get his COPR yet, that's why we're confused. This is our timeline.

July 27: application received in Mississauga
Aug. 18: AOR1
I didn't get any SA but I received our
VO transfer/AOR2: Sept. 7 in Manila
Medical: Upfront

And still I can't link our application to mycic account. :(

Is it possible that CIC has reached its 2016 quota already? Or is reaching its 2016 quota already? That's why they are slowing down in giving PPR's? If so, what happens to the rest of 2016 applicants? :-X :'( Just curious..
