Ours Permanent resident still show Application Received:/ I hope that will update it soon. How long do you think takes to get PR after DM? we would like to travel outside of Canada on August, Im afraid that wont be possible:/

Even if you get DM and even landing interview with COPR, you will need a actual PR Card to re enter Canada after. You can't anymore just use your passport and CORP.

I've read that info in this thread. You can have a look

Hi @profiler

I am March 2017 applicant and my ECAS changes today from In Process/ Application recieved to In process / In process. What it does mean? Have been over a year already. Thank you!

 

[EGH]

Today or yesterday because I didn't check my Ecas, on sponsored side (Permanent Residence Application Status) changed to "In process" from "Application Received" and on sponsor's side (Sponsorship Application Status) changed from "In process" to Application received". Nothing has been changed on MyCIC account.

Is this a good sign?

Same here.. ECAS changed .. No idea what it means

It might take a couple days. Don't worry I am March Applicant as well...and even though I received DM in mid March, I am still waiting for Etobicoke office to contact me for that final interview. Now that's annoying...

 

[justyna123]

What is your timeline?

I'm a PA, they are supposed to contact me in this case. They only contacted my Sponsor once to let him know that he passed his eligibility to sponsor me. I am not sure how it works if you are a representative...Did you include this information in your application?
