Yes, they asked me to addtional doc on july 17 related to school record to support for my DOB..
So in ur case when six line showed up , was the status IP for few days and then changed to DM within 2-3 days ?
Here's my theory....if CIC requests documents that demands reviewing the originals (not fax, or emailed copy) like PPC, Birth certificate etc, your application can be delayed up to 60 days (typical deadline you're given to submit a requested document). The reason is...it appears the case processing officer sends out the document request and sets a reminder to come back and check at the end of the deadline he / she gave you. So it could be sitting there in your file but case officer may not check your file prior to the deadline, he / she may be working through other files that are complete. When your deadline is reached, he / she checks and then you should get DM within 7 days of the deadline expiry. There's another verified part to this....When I sent in my PPC, it arrived July 10th, I called CIC July 30th and aslo sent an email. I received an email that my documents have been received, and it takes between 4 - 6 weeks for the PPC to go through mail in take, into my file. It took 5 week for me to go from IP to 6 lines.
In summary, when your lines are updated in ecas, I believe your DOB / birth certificate document has been received and entered into your file, BUT your case processing officer may not have reviewed it. the moment he / she reviews it then you'll go to DM. So from updated ecas lines to DM - the maximum time is the deadline you were given to mail a document in + 7 days. In some cases, another case processing officer may not wait till the end of the deadline he/ she game to check on your file to see if the document has been mailed in. In this case Updated Ecas lines to DM could be a few days (2 - 3 days, same as for those that only have to update schedule A or RPRF). This same pattern is seen in express entry
