Pre-arrival services are only available if Principal Applicant have passed eligibility (i.e. in IRCC's eyes, your relationship is genuine). However, one still needs to clear Medicals, Criminality and BGC in order to get PPR.
Decision Made (DM) is triggered when:
a) everything is cleared, sorted out and they are now ready to issue you visa.
OR
b) they have reservations/doubts on your case and have refused your PR application. Refusal could also be from failing to clear Medicals, Criminality and/or BGC.
You need to follow this official link : https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/pakistan/how_to_apply.html#temporary_documents
You can also follow VFS Passport submission guide by tuner274 : Passport submission - VFS - Pakistan specific information - Post PPR however, look for official link for latest fees and charges.
Average is around 2 to 3 weeks.
You Pay Biometric fees upfront and file your application.

1) No. Only PA needs to fill up IMM 0008 and add spouse' details as dependant on page 3 of 5. Document Checklist IMM5533 clearly state on Page 2 of 10 that this form is to be completed by Principal Applicant and their dependants if any (not sponsor).
2) Supplementary Information - Your Travels (IMM 5562) form should be completed by Principal Applicant only. It's mentioned on top of IMM 5562 form itself. Secondly, it comes under "Country Specific Requirements" (CSR) and it falls under forms to be completed by PA in Form IMM5533, not sponsor. This is a generic form used for other immigration streams as well, where both spouses apply for PR together, without any sponsor. For Spousal Sponsorship application, your sponsoring spouse is only considered as "Sponsor". You can write N/A next to section B, as it's not required in your case.
Then contact IRCC Call Centre or your relevant Case Processing Centre / Visa Office via their Webform
