you can change your address by yourself using MyCIC account or using sponsor account using "check application status"
You can also request to CIC by using "Case Specific Inquiry", this option will take some time though.

Which office handled your file? Mississauga or Vegreville?

Mississauga, except for a brief delay when they lost my police certificates, and asked that copies be sent to Vegreville. The landing interview will take place in etobicoke.
Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm from the states and have lived in Canada on student visas/a post grad work permit since 2008.

Goodluck on Friday! Just a couple of questions if you wouldnt mind.. did you include everything up front, from your police check to your medical and do know if that was what sped up your process?

Thank you also for sharing. I hope all the rest of our applications get through as quickly!

I am new to the forum. I also want to apply for my spouse's inland application by august end. How many pages should be How we met and under what circumstances? Should it be a essay from both of us explaining our side of story?

you can submit any and all proof you deem relevant.
People usually submit photos, insurance beneficiary information, copy of travel logs, electronic communication etc. Usually if you are married less proof is required than if you are in a common law relation.

good luck with your application

i would question the validity of that. there aren't any dates for AIP or decision made on his timeline. These generally come before a landing appointment date, no? if there is a landing date, it would be assumed the other information is available to add too. so what are those dates?

Lately with many 2015 applicants, we've been seeing the jump from AOR to Landing and many the jump from SA to Landing. No idea what CIC is doing. There are still a handful of 2013 applicants I know of (not all on the spreadsheet) still waiting as well as many from 2014. Nice to see 2016 landing--but confusing.
