I don't think the pre arrival letter matters much, some people never got it before DM. If your case office is Ottawa, it will be fast in every aspect even with complicated background check. It is what it is, at this point I'm just grateful I could submit the application because it looks like the policy is changing every year and no guarantee we could submit in the future
I agree. I know ppl didn't win lottery in last two years and wasn't quick enough on computer to get in line this year. We are lucky enough. Just need to be patient.

For the Applicants with London as their visa office:

The second AOR that I have received from the London office states the following:

"If you have not received any further communication from this office within 9 months of the received date of your application, please contact us for an update."

The definition of the 'Received Date' as per this AOR is the date an application reached Ottawa for the first time (not when it reached London).

They also provided an email address in the AOR for a follow-up which is as follows:
LDNIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca

I believe there are applicants from the first round who still may be waiting to hear from this office.
Has anyone attempted to reach them for a follow-up yet? If yes, what is the response from this office?

You can use your income from previous years while on a work/study permit to qualify as a sponsor.

What does your ECAS say for the PR side. 'APP Received' or 'In Process'?
