Im hoping that's the case with mine too! Mine hasnt been updated at all and when I called they told me they dont have access to my file and I should just wanted to be contacted by the office. However, another time I called they said my file is in Ottawa and its being processed. Has anyone that has received approval after May 24th received their PPR? I'd like to at least come up with a estimated date here! :)

If you look at the LA spreadsheet, one from March, one from May(9th) so far have PPR :)

I'm reaching my lawyers first as they told me that some send their CSQ when they get their PPR but after over a month it's not in my file! ( just got off the phone, they are sending a photocopy)

The joys of living in Quebec eh? :p

In any case I hope they get that sorted for you! You are paying them to get your husband PR!
