Hello Everyone,
As an update, I just received Eligibility Passed Letter on MyCIC (for me, principal applicant).
I'm a March 6th applicant, background check started/in process since Aug. 30th (CIC states background still in process), medical passed in Sept.
All quiet since Sept. up until this morning. No other updates.

How long does it take for the security and eligibility clearance ?
 
How long does it take for the security and eligibility clearance ?

Hello, in terms of eligibility, in my case, it took 10 months (from application received to the eligibility passed letter received). This letter is also the AIP.
In terms of security clearance, it is difficult to say how long this takes because these details of the process aren't really mentioned in our MyCIC or in ECAS. Perhaps the best way to find out about security and criminality clearance details is to request your GCMS notes. The notes will have more details regarding these steps of your application process.

My Ecas changed to decision made on sponsor side this morning but we haven't received any letter/email. Have you received any SA email?

Yes I received AIP and SA on the same day. I am now only waiting for the last letter which will be my landing interview.
 
Hello, has anyone received their Landing Interview Date Letter via email yet? How long did it take to get it after getting Decision Made Letter?
Thanks!
 
Hi all,

My spouse and I are March applicants. We both recieved the eligible for PR and eligible to Sponsor letter on December 31.

If her temp residence paper work expires on Feb 1st.. should we get it extended? (We planned on getting our sponsorship application in January 2018, so we didn't ask for a longer temp residence at the time... Cuz we just didn't know any better)

I'm not sure how close we are since we recently got our letters... Can someone clarify what the next step is and how long it takes?
 
March 13 Applicant. Received eligibility letter - AIP yesterday and DM showing on ECAS but nothing from SA.

Hi Everyone,
We received DM statuses December 22nd and AIP on both sides on December 28th.
Waiting for Niagara Falls IRCC to communicate landing interview date.
Is anyone else on a similar timeline or waiting to hear from the Niagara Falls office?
