Oh thank you so much for the information. But how would they know when are we available? What if we fail to pick up the phone call?

it's not a phone call,the office closest to where you live will send you an email with the date and time you have to be for your landing appointment and they mention what you have to bring with you.. remember* PA and sponsor have to attend this appointment, if you can't attend that day you have to get in contact with them... all the info you need will be in that email don't worry.

however, last June 5, I received this email from IRCC:

Do you have any idea how long it will take for SA?

June applicants are just getting their AIP. If they keep the same pace, it'll be likely in about 6 months.

Hi Congrats. When did you get your Sponsorship approval?

Inland Dec 11

 

[bornhunter]

You mean 6 months for SA or decision on PR app?

It all usually comes within few days. SA, AIP, DM. It took 2 days for me.

 

[bornhunter]

I guess for inland applicants it takes time. Are you inland or outland?

They're processing inland applications really close to 12 months,you still have a few months to go. Patience

 

[bornhunter]

I am concerned about sponsorship approval as I have heard it takes only few weeks to get SA

SA,AIP and DM comes basically all together close to the end.. you can see checking a few pages back June and July 2017 are receiving it now.

your process is end of dec so next you are going to hear is about medical request

Maybe for outland apps but definitely not for inland. Approx current timelines (at least for apps submitted after June/July 2017) are medical request after 6-8 months, then AIP/SA/DM all come around the same time around 11 months, some might land within 12 months if lucky but most take a month or so longer.
