My timeline is almost identical to yours. Down to medical being done on that same day. Still haven't heard anything other than my decision made on March 8th. It says is ECSA that they started processing my application on March 8th. Did they send the email to both sponsor and PA?
Hey, they just sent it to me (sponsor)

Ok thanks. I'll tell my wife to keep an eye out for an email
Absolutely.
I was very surprised to see our PPR arrive in my inbox yesterday. Especially with no updates in our ECAS or GCKey and my husband (applicant) receiving most of the e-mail communication.

Checking our GCKey again and there's still no update since medical received, and the progress bar says "8 months"

I hope you guys get a happy surprise very soon too!

Very strange as PPR usually comes through to the PA’s email.

A progress update of our spouse sponsorship
Outland - USA

Application Received: November 23rd
AOR: February 6th
SA: February 18th
MR: February 19th
MR completed : February 22
MR recieved & Passed: (about 7 business days later)
VO Transfer: February 27th (Mississauga)
Background check: March 9th
PPR: March 12th

....The odd thing is. that our GCKEY and ECAS have not been updated since our medical was passed. Our VO transfer and PPR have come to us via e-mail. So we're not sure what is up there. In fact..most of our communication has actually come to us first via email before being updated on those portals.
hey , did you get any communication about Back ground check on March 9th?

My time line are to the dot as yours,so curious.
