Hi guys,
First time posting. On behalf of everybody , I would like to thank everyone that does. This forum has been very helpful.
Today my sister in law received her ppr. My brother is a PR. Our application was delivered to Miss. on June 12, 2018. We were able to see the status update on July14 using the cic online tool. Same day we were able to create our GCkey account. This all happened without any AOR. We used his info for the online tool and used his wife's info for the GCKey. On July 17, the online tool showed descision made for the sponsorship part of the application. It was actually on July 30 that he actually got his AOR. Our AOR orginated from Sydney, in case you would like to know. After that came the SA email on August 17. Like everybody else with this timeline, we also got the request for medical on August 21. Medical was done on the 27, updated on gckey on Sept. 5 with the line that she passed the medical . On Sept. 11 we got the email stating that our file would be transferred from Sydney to Mississauga for further processing. She is in India. Yesterday , Sept. 27, her background check started. It was updated in Gckey. No email about status update, just visible under the profile updated status. Today she got the email to submit her passport to vfs. Just in case you are wondering, the online tool shows decision made for the permanet resident application while gckey still says background check in progress. The letter that she got in her personal email was mailed out by cic mississauga but in the footer of the letter, the address of the high commision of canada in New delhi is written on it. The pre-arrival services that are available are also mentioned in a seperate sheet.
We filled out our application ourselves. For anybody out there starting out,it is possible. This forum and its members are very helpful. I would like to wish you all the best. I have a strong feeling that alot of PPR's are ready to be emailed. Good luck everybody. Wish you guys all the best.
That is awesome!! :D

That is the problem. I can't call them as both PA and Sponsor are outside Canada. The number that was supposed to work from outside Canada didn't work for me. IRCC doesn't want ppl from outside Canada calling them, I guess.

I have linked it but since I did it, like 12 days ago. The ECAS of my wife changed on the 24th saying that they had sent us a correspondence regarding the DM on her sponsorship. My GCKey shows eligibility and background in progress for like 10 days already. BTW, we didn't get any AOR or SA so far!

That's rather frustrating :rolleyes:
I received an email about SA and then the next day it was updated in eCAS that I have been sent correspondence. In your case, you would not receive any correspondence anymore since you linked your account online. As I see it, your SA is DM and your application is in progress. Not to worry.

If it helps, my SA letter contained just one line, that I am eligible to be a sponsor.

You have to be in Canada to call IRCC.

So what I understand is that as the PA has linked the application we would not get the SA e-mail. Is that so?

No. The PA has to link the application to GCKey in order to see the updates. Not everybody receives SA email, it’s normal. If your (PA) part is already in process it means the sponsor was approved.

Thanks, @Peanut butter and jelly
Are the messages received on GCKey directed to the email or should I keep checking it daily? I guess the next step would be for me to receive the instructions for the medical exams, after they have finished the eligibility and BGC is that right?

Thanks again

There’s really no steps that need to be followed. You will either receive medical request or transfer email. If they send any messages on GCKey you will receive an email telling you to check GCKey.

I sent my application on June 18 or so. Wednesday, September 26, I finally received the AOC through email. On it, it says they received the application on June 25. I wish it gives you some hope. I know how stressful it is. They now seem to be opening the applications around our timeframe.
