you can send either way - I liked sending it via courier because someone has to sign to receive the documents and I wanted to make sure someone had them.
you can do via email and you will get an automated email back saying the received your communication.

Everything is supposed to be sent together.

I did not realize that your ECAS showed medical received - if that is the case I won't worry - but my policy is better to be sage than sorry. 8)

Thanks for reply.. but my concerned is, if the ECAS show "medical received" then I believe the London Visa Office definitely have my ECAS's access, right?

2nd thought, if CPC-M sends my documents to LVO, they definitely have to copy some documents along with the Medical Receipt attached that application kit, right?

Anyways my question is, Do I have to wait for LVO to contact with Principal Applicant, or I should send the copy directly to them? and Should I send the paper mail or can I just send a copy by E-Mail?

If you had already done medicals and they have received it, I think you can ignore this line? My guess is this is a generic letter?
This is a generic letter, cpc Mississauga sent the same letter to all on SA and if on ECAS they mentioned the 2nd point medical received is that mean London visa office already received all docs.. because they are working online not paper based work.

Hello everyone,

did you know that they just changed the processing times for the outland spousal sponsorship for most countries?

for my country (Lebanon), it suddenly went from 16 months (step 2) to 64 months !

It went up for other countries too (like India, Morocco...etc) . but all other countries are much less than us. the closest one is USA with 39 months.

anyone has any idea about this sudden change? could there be an error on their website or sthg?

Super Fast. Turbo Fast :)

Both Sponsorship Application Status and Permanent Residence Application Status are now showing "In Process". Probably today or last night Permanent Residence Application Status changed to "In Process".

What does this "In process" Means? any idea?

dont worry about the processing time if your application is straight forward without any red flag .. your application will be completed maximum 12 to 15 months maybe before..

Me too! I now have "We started processing <name>'s application on August 10, 2015. under the Permanent Resident Status update.

I'm pretty sure it's just the start of the process....but at least they are providing updates.

I like to think it's because I forwarded my letter to my MP to Stephen Harper as well...and posted my petition link on Minister Alexander's FB page.

So I take it we can use this as an AOR2 date?

;)

YAY!!!
