I applied Aug 8 but after receiving my AOR I basically heard nothing again until they asked for my medical late June. Then my sponsor received his approval last week and I got my AIP and decision made all within a week of each other. My AIP letter read:
Dear … :
This refers to the Application for Permanent Residence you made under the Spouse or Common-Law Partner in Canada Class.
It has been determined that you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence as a member of the spouse or common-law partner in Canada class. Please note that a final decision will not be made until all remaining requirements for becoming a permanent resident have been met. These requirements include medical, security and background checks for you and, if applicable, all of your family members, both in Canada and abroad, even if they are not applying to join you in Canada at this time. You cannot become a permanent resident until you and all your family members have met these requirements.
We have our interview to finalise now next week. It's stressful waiting and hearing nothing, but then it all seems to come at once... good luck
