Interview was taken 1st September. 2nd September received pre arrival letter and medical examination request. What does that mean? Which stage of the processing am I on?

Just to understand better is anyone here waiting after Pre-Arrival and DM? Or is everyone between those two statuses?

My partner got Pre-arrival and DM on same day. but the trouble we're facing is with linking the application to GC-Key. It keeps saying can't find. I heard that the next steps happen on that platform. Is that the case? Or has anyone done this fully via email correspondence.

Got both in March but ever since then no updates, I don't even know what’s the next step it’s really a long procedure

Like a few others have said, it all depends on VO. Just got PPR but they made a mistake in address so need to fix that asap. Hopefully this doesn't mean another long wait.
