Maybe I'm overthinking it, but on my wife's(sponsor) ECAS it says: Decision Made and that they sent a letter on Oct 10 (my wife hasnt received it yet). Does your ECAS literally says that the SA was approved?
How long you all think we should wait for the said letter to arrive before contacting CIC?
No the status shows "Decision Made", it WONT say SA was approved, the letter says you meet the conditions for sponsorship.

I understand where you coming from coz i experienced it the same way...actually its not literally says that its was approved on ECAS... it shows the same thing like yours that they will send the decision letter, but we never get one. So insteas of calling them coz my husband was not that time in canada i'd searched an email address where i can use to followup, i got this Question@cic.gc.ca, so i emailed and said everything that we never got anything from them with regards our apps then after 3 business days they'd replay and re-send the letter that what we supposed to received indicating that my hubby(sponsor) is eligible to sponsor and they will send our papers now to our VO here in Phil....

Thank you all for your input :) I'll wait one more week for the letter to arrive (2 weeks total) before sending an inquiry.

Have a great day everybody ;)

Expect it to take anything from two weeks to a month and then the sponsor gets an email (if you chose the email option for them to contact you) or a letter saying if conditional sponsorship approval has been granted. They will then ask you to send a copy of that letter along with your application for QC sponsorship and your wife's CSQ to Quebec. Quebec seems to take an average of two to three weeks before they charge your credit card and another two weeks after that before you will get their decision. In the meantime, your wife's application will have been forwarded to the visa office ready to go through that process if all the rest if approved.

Realistically, there's not much point in trying to keep an eye on how the application is progressing until you are at least a month through the process. The applications take a long time and patience is the key.

Good Luck for you! I just have one question, the email that the visa office sent was sent to the sponsor or the applicant? As i found an email from CIC in my junk mail folder but when i refreshed it the email was deleted :(!

The VO email came to the applicant, under the email written in the application.

Depends on what she was asking
If she meant the AOR or SA it's sent to the sponsor
The passport request is to the applicant (sponsored person)

Just wanted to clarify :)

Well she was asking for the email from the VO office, I think only CIC-M corresponds with the sponsor. VO only contacts the applicant.
