lol. My wife got an email today too. You're not alone. At least, she landed already.

I stand corrected then. Apologies.

ugghh. My point was if they send this letter, it is usually the last thing they need. It was only to clarify that the OP will be in the last stage of his/her application and a decision will be made after 30 days. It was in response to your post:

Incorrect. The letter the OP mentioned usually has a line that states that a decision "WILL" be made after 30 days regardless of a person sending additional documents. DM could be approved or rejected.

Actually, they did the same in my case. Just one letter and it was final request. Mix up photos from different occasions. If there are any traditions followed in your country, include them as well. Send the birth certificate again as khp mentioned. Not necessarily the end, but close to it...

According to CIC, anything under 12 months since the documents were first received is considered normal. So yeah.

AFAIK, majority of files that get sent to NDVO take a month or so for BGC. You will get PPR after that. It's very normal.

Each file is different. You're probably looking at a month or two. What's your timeline?

Congrats. Submit the passport right away. Ours took 10 days to get back.

What is the status of the medical request on GCKey? If it's passed, you shouldn't have to worry. I got PPR a few days after decision made on eCAS.

It is 30 days. You can try contacting the VO for extension, but not sure if they will approve.

After all that, wife is landing this Friday. This forum was of great help. Thank you all. Is Pre-arrival mandatory?

Citizenship and Immigration Canada - CPCM - Communication to client / Citoyenneté et Immigration Canada - CTDM - Communication auprès de la clientèle I think CPCM is CPC Mississauga. Yours might be different depending on the VO.

Depends on the mistake. If it's not a serious one, you can wait. If it is, then contact the visa office.

It's never certain. For most, it's very next day. Mine took more than a week. Please note that they send PPR to the PA's email account. Not the sponsor's email, not GCkey. Check the spam folders as well.
