I noticed in August thread, there are a few people their ECAs at the sponsor side change to "Application received"? What does it mean? And is there anyone in July experienced the same?

Yes, that's what i was talking about that august people are having update . It means they have started looking into sponsor's eligibility, till now i haven't seen any july applicant having any update on ECaS.

What I don't know is how long it takes to get a PR card after that, or if you can travel without a PR card?
My wife (the PA) wants to pick up her 11 yr old daughter from the old country as soon as possible.
Anyone have an answer to the above question?

Sometimes it just takes a day or two for them to update eCAS or send out the email. But I kinda envy you cuz ur profile seems to have progress.. not like mine :'(
