Hi guys, so my husband side already shows DM on ECAS since I received my AIP on Oct. 9.
On my side it still says in process and when I click on it line 2 says: we started processing your application October 9, 2018.

How long does it usually take for PA side to be DM as well? I see with most people they receive DM on ECAS on both sides at the same time...

This is basically SA?
How long does it usually take to get AIP after and decision made on both sides?

That's very interesting.. I hope they don't do this for me, as the Vancouver office is only a 5 minute walk from my house. I wonder if it is decided by how close you are to the office, as well as how many appointments they are backed up with.

Do you live closer to the Surrey office than the Vancouver office?

Fair enough, you probably will receive it from Vancouver I guess.. I am in the interior (Kamloops).. so literally Surrey its closer than downtown Vancouver for me :P

cheers!

Hi Guys,

I am going to land next Tuesday in Vancouver office, they ask me to bring proof of payment, Passport, photos, and current status permit in Canada during the interview.

Just in case, what else I would need to bring if they will request to have a look?

thank you for your help.

It can be very quick or take a few days or weeks. We were one of the ones who it took a few weeks, three to be exact.

AIP comes before DM, sometimes not all letters are sent. We didn't get a DM letter for sponsor or PA. Our DM for PA was also delayed so the timing is sometimes case specific. Usually quite quickly but depends on your worker and if they want anything further from you.
 
Can’t help but feel frustrated. It’s been almost a month since I got AIP and DM on Sponsor side but no DM on my side. I’m looking forward to bring my daughter and have her go to school here this school year but I guess it’s not possible anymore seeing how the application is going. Gonna hit 12month soon. Well, guess I have to bother the MP after October 26.

We’re the same boat. My applications was on August 9, 2017. I got AIP and SA on August 8,2018 past 2 months now . Nothing happing . But my MP just called CIC. They said . It will be done the end of this month. If not we will call them back . Just one more step.

It doesnt matter . They ask you to upload or send to them via webform if it is sent to your address by rcmp.

Good luck !!! Hopefully soon you get AIP and SA. We got the day after they received the fingerprints.
