    Yes it did but not until the very last day before our PPR/COPR tracking number was activated, which was after we received the decision made message through ECAS. My timeline is in the spreadsheet for more info on how long it took.

    OK, some further insight from our application: our GCKey never updated the line for additional documents, even after we received the final approval. So, we received the request for schedule A, uploaded it, they received it.... Still today even after the final decision has been made, it still...

    The section directly below where you took that screenshot should contain a message on what they require. You should also receive an email with a PDF document attached outlining what is required (if you provided an email address). The change to GCKey did not coincide with the time we received...

    May 5th: My ECAS (I'm the sponsor) page was updated to Decision made May 10th: My spouse (the PA) received the Ready for Visa email (PPR) May 24: CIC received our PPR documents May 31: PA's GCKey was updated to "your application was approved" My understanding from my timeline is that they don't...

    Yeah I think that's normal, have a look at the spreadsheet for more date information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QCWtvz-ZMSd0HyJ_aIaGnmsK8S6AoUgJBTv9KHGNPuQ/edit#gid=992511551 The average is 20 days between application received and acknowledgement of receipt. Some people it took...

    I don't recall what it said when they requested a replacement, since I'm not the principal applicant, I unfortunately can't check what it says myself. I remember that uploading the form through myCIC was much simpler than IRCC webform, once we were able to find it.

    A similar thing happened to us, we submitted schedule A in hard copy, but immediately got the request to upload electronically. We used the IRCC webform and were asked to replace with no explanation. We called, but they had no additional information. We then used myCIC and realized that there...

    The January spreadsheet shows 64 applicants, the March spreadsheet has 83. Just more people, I would guess :)

    Sent in our last request for photos, address and photocopy of the passport on Friday. The package should arrive at CPC Ottawa on Wednesday, then we're in the last stretch wait for COPR. Sooooo unbelievably close!

    Married but haven't lived together yet and have no shared finances

    We were in this situation too and we addressed it by providing an additional page of information responding to each item, labeled with both our full names and birth dates. The dash items are from the forms, the bolded text is our response. -Joint ownership of residential property or joint...

    We sent our medicals up front so I don't have first hand experience with this, however I can say that every time there was an important update or request for information, we both received emails. I would expect that if you registered to receive email correspondence, you will get an email...

    HAPPY DANCE FOR A HAPPY DAY! ECAS was updated today from "In process" to "Decision made" under PR application status! We sent in our application on January 12th so the total number of days we have waited so far is 114. I'm guessing it will be a month or so before we receive the COPR. I have...

    I can't say for others, but the row for my application looks like it contains an error. There is a value of 6 in the AOR2 column which I haven't received and that value isn't on the google sheet. Am I misunderstanding the AOR2 column?

    Yep, you got it, that's the one. My CIC as in, the CIC page that I log into that has my info on it. Maybe my strange use of capitalization threw you off.
