So I checked ECAS again, DM is on both sides. However, on my (PA) side, it shows a new line "We started processing PA's application on August 27, 2018". Is this normal? Why would it start processing 2 days ago when it's DM.
Agree with Sylvain it's a glitch that happens when the decision is made. Just check for the letter on gckey or email. Congrats.

So I’ve mentioned on this thread once before that our circumstances have changed and we therefore will be moving back to Australia at the end of November on a one way ticket. I’m a dual citizen - Australian/Canadian - will my husband and children be able to maintain their PR status outside of Canada since they will be living with me in Australia?

When the time comes to renew PR status, whoever don't meet the number of days inside Canada requirement, will lose status.

Guys i wonder if anyone can help!
Going to land now but in the landing letter it states to bring the COPR if we already have it.
We are inland applicants and never received that is it normal?

Just got AIP!!!! It came from the Montreal office (I'm in Montreal). As of my last GCMS notes it was in Vancouver, so I guess the sent it to Montreal for assessment? Sponsor hasn't received anything yet - is it possible that he never gets an SA letter and I only get AIP?

App received: September 26, 2017
AOR: November 27, 2017
Medical passed: April 27, 2018
AIP: August 29, 2018

No changes on ECAS yet. My account says now "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements."
DM on both sides as of this morning. Now to just wait for the landing letter. Hoping it'll be pretty quick since the AIP letter came from my home office (Montreal).

I would try, most people get their landing letter 1-6 weeks after DM. You are reaching 6 weeks, so I would try to call.

Congratulations! Landings in montreal are quicker than they used to be. You should hear from them in a week or two.

then wait. If the landing invitation was out already (and you did not get it due to technical problems for example), he would have seen it. Then I guess, you just have to wait a bit more. But that should not be much longer. For 2015 and 2016 applicants, there were some offices taking up to 8 weeks to contact people for landing (that was our case). So, give it maybe another 2 weeks!
