UPDATE: Just received an email from the IRCC office in Kitchener inviting to a landing interview for May 4! I did not receive any emails for SA, AIP or DM. My ECAS on both PA and sponsor side changed to Decision Made on Apr 24. My full timeline is in my signature below. Finally at the finish line!
That’s awesome!! Congrats!!

How often do you guys (who have passed the deadline) call immigration to check about your application?

I sent CSQ two weeks ago and in the website nothing has changed...

I'm also March 2017 - I see a lot of people from February and March waiting! wondering if I'm close to the end...
I'm march 2017 too... I was just wondering the same, not sure if they have all the calls registered but probably not

We just landed today at Etobicoke, Ontario.

Took half a day but it was mostly just waiting in line. Interview was all of 15 minutes. Only because the Immigration Official was quite friendly and talkative. Typical questions asking about criminality, deportation, and refusal of entry. She then gave quite a thorough explanation of residency obligations, new resident settlement benefits, how to apply/use SIN, etc. No pressure at all.

Hello,

I've been reading through the posts and there is some really good information on here, thanks everyone!!

I was wondering if there was anyone else on a similar Timeline to myself;

- I sent off my application for Spousal Sponsorship Visa and Open Work Permit late February and my the application was received by CIC on the 4th April 2018 (I had sent it tracked so know when they signed for it at the Mississauga address).
- I have not yet received any correspondance from CIC but from reading this thread it looks like I am still early doors and might not receive anything for another 4 weeks or so at least :/
It might be worthwhile following the 2018 thread, this is for 2017 Applications - https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/2018-spousal-sponsorship-in-land-applications-timeline-and-updates.536517/unread

You should receive your AOR within 4-6 weeks of Mississauga receiving the application
