My ecas changed to Application Received for the PA, finally. Hamdoulla. Hope it goes back to In Process quickly.
Did you receive an email/ecas message when this change occured? Or did it silently happen, and you noticed the change when checking your application on ecas? Cheers.

Good morning @whichuser . Since, I'm at the point of not needing to obsessively check ecas/gckey anymore, I check once in the morning and once before going to bed (that's not obsessive, right?). It just showed up this morning ecas, no email. Once it goes back to in process (AOR2) I'm not sure if an email will come or not.

Thanks for this. It seems like your daily checking paid off! It may be that I missed this change as I try not to check too often. I suppose I'll have to just keep checking from now on.

When it goes back to in process on the PA side, a line item will be added to say, "We started processing your application on such and such date." Do you have that on PA side?

No it doesn't. I didn't realise it added a permanent marker when changing back, thanks for that information. I suppose that means the application has yet to pass the AOR2 gate.

You never really know if they're updating regularly... I wondered myself whether it was actually in process and just not updated because I was notified that it was going to Paris VO back in February. Who would have thought it would take 2 months from SA to PA's PR App Received at the VO....

I just received my sponsorship approval today. I was informed in the email that our application is being sent to the Mexico office.

My husband however, has not received any sort of email or mail from IRCC regarding our application or anything at all that contains his UCI or application number. Is that the normal process? Do we wait for an email or an actual physical mail? We haven’t been able to set up an account for him yet because of this.
Thanks for your answers!

He should receive an e-mail in a few days, we got ours a few days after the SA. Don't worry about it!

Yes, my original email provided the lvo, but that doesn't mean it's transferred at that time sadly. This is my timeline:
