Seems like there is good news all around, congrats to those that got the PR!
We also received a interview request couple of weeks back. Its scheduled for mid Nov, 2014.

Has anyone gone through the interview process, what sort of questions Vienna asks?
Any hard to answer or confusing ones?

My bro went, they asked majority questions related to his relationship with his wife. Where she works, what she does, when do they plan on having kids, how much money she makes, what does she spend it on, does she send money to him, when they communicate, how they communicate...etc. The questions are not hard if you know your partner. Sometimes it's not about having a 100% correct answer, its about showing how your relationship functions. The relationship related questions are pretty easy. 80% of the time an interview is scheduled because the immigration officer is suspicious either of the marriage or the person seeking PR, the other 20% is routine. Hopefully everything goes well! :)

Since they issued your COPR without asking for your passport, it means you are from a visa exempt country and you don't require a visa stamp in your passport to travel to Canada.

If this is not the case with you, and you are a non-visa exempt national, then it is sometimes possible that the embassy made a mistake and you need to contact them asap.

Do you know when my online status would change from in process?

Don't worry about that ;) the status is changed manually by the officers and since it looks like they are super busy I don't think it will change, but who cares about that ;D you got your documents that means you're officially done with the dreadful process ;) when did you send the police certificate?

I totally understand what you mean. I can't see a single reason why I would not get the COPR but I don't want to get excited until I have it in my hands too!

You'll be fine, because you're done!!! =D
Vienna is a terribly slow office, but from the statistics we've seen, they have a great approval rate for applicants.
I'm a Jan. 16, 2014 applicant. My situation is slightly complicated, so it may take Vienna a bit longer to process my case. All other Croats I've come across on this thread have passed.

Nothing in the mail today either. I feel like this weekend will suck so badly because that is all i am thinking about. You would think that in the email they would have at least written CONGRATULATIONS for waiting this damn long.
