Finally I get to post this!!
PPR for us..
After 235 days.. We got the GOLD

ITA: 15th Nov 18
AOR: 28th Nov 18
Me: 8th Jan 19
ADR: 8th Jan 19(IMM5475), submitted on 9th Jan 19
No update after that.
GCMS applied through ATIP: 29th April, never received
Called on 6th month completion and was told file untouched

Background processing started (so called IP2): 4th June 19 Medical cleared: 12th June 19
Called on 14th June and was told Criminality passed, security did not start and eligibility under RR.
Confirmed the same from Ralph.

Reviewing of ADR changed to "Not Applicable": 20th July 19
PPR: 23rd July 19 (mail shows date as 22nd July 19)
I have been calling CIC each week. Last Thursday also when I called they told me Eligibility in RR. Actually it was a mixed response, we mailed Ottawa office and they told us, file is in queue for review by officer, some agents said RR and some said normal review going on. Never found out if it was actually on RR and what was the reason. Never received any GCMS notes.
It has been a terrifying journey, sleepless nights, depression, issues at work, but today I feel it was worth the wait. Oh yes, I lost 17kgs since AOR to PPR. Lol.
My husband is already in Canada studying, so it was a tough phase for us. But we finally sailed through. Rather it is our 2nd Anniversary on 28th July and this is a gift from CIC to us. I wonder if they had been holding it intentionally now. Hahaha.
My husband had a job offer and without PR it was tough for him to get it as he had applied considering he would get it in 6 months. So well yes had gone through a very bad phase but all is worth it now.
*** Lastly, I need help ***
Never read the posts about how to submit passport after receiving the mail as I thought I will never get it.
My husband is in Canada, so should I submit my passport and get COPR and travel to Canada and then he gets his passport stamped? Or is there some other procedure when the dependent is already in Canada and the primary is outside?
Also please guide me what documents do I need to take with me to VFS office? And about photographs, does vfs Office gets it done there? I am from Kolkata so anybody who have submitted in Kolkata office please guide me.
Thank you everyone who has helped me in this journey. I still can't believe I actually got it and now it is my turn to share my timeline..
FINALLY...MY WATCH HAS ENDED
