Cool, fanatics! I have no ecas change yet, but I got that email last week. My ecas changed on a Thursday last time.. so hopefully it will change this week! Either that or I get an AOR letter.

Hopefully it is soon for both of us! I'm still hoping for PPR by the end of October. I had a weird email situation last week but it boiled down to the fact that my file was created, so I suppose that is 'in process'... so I'm still waiting for some more 'official' information!

I'm sorry, cuds. I got some weird emails last week giving me a file number, but other than that I also have nothing. I know it's frustrating to see others approved while we're just waiting around! Our time will come though!

yeah! finally! i hope it won't be too long for you now!

honestly, when we started this process with accra stated as taking 12-20 months, i really thought i'd be the last one here in the may thread. i am so happy and surprised that it has happened so quickly for us, and i hope that everyone here is soon reunited with their spouse or able to enjoy the full privilege of canadian permanent residency!

thanks everyone for your congratulations. i look forward to congratulating you all shortly!
