Ours was about a week. Some got it sooner/later... So don't worry.
thanks profiler.
Fact is, even we don't know what they decide about sponsor. Agent told me that they are working on PA now and may be they will send the decision together to SA and PA when they have something to say. I told him when you decide about SA then shuldn't we receive an email, he is saying sometime Y and sometime N. Depends on the officer.

Easy answer: it's approved.

Long answer:
You can't have a sponsorship, without a sponsor. So, if they are working on PA, and didn't just refuse, then it's a pass.

Reality is, it's pretty hard not to be able to sponsor... You pretty much have to try to be refused...

Yeah. It seems to be totally variable lately. Some get landings quick, others wait 2 months. Unfortunately, that's all I know in this regard...

But don't worry -- soon enough :).

For my wife, she got DM on March 21st, and last Friday, May 12th, we got the landing appointment letter. The appointment is for May 26th. Our office is Montreal, not Etobicoke, but they both seem slow/very busy. So we got the letter around 7.5 weeks after DM and the appointment is 9.5 weeks after DM. I hope you'll get news soon!

As long as you complete the medical on the 30th day, it's fine. When it's finished, scan and CSE the eMedical form that the physician gives you. They won't have any issue with it.

They actually build in a buffer (time buffer) around these requests. So, you'd be well within the buffer anyway. So, really don't worry. It's more irritating to know that it slowed your case down, I found ;).
