If you got double DM for both sponsor and PA, then you will probably get a letter saying your application is completed now, and after this you will get your landing letter; or you just straightly will get the landing letter.
I got PA and Sponsor eligibility both passed the end of last Nov, I just waiting for the final DM for my PA side. still in the process of security background check...

Hello, I submitted my PR and OWP application 12th of July via Canada post and they confirmed delivery on 17th of July 2019. I haven’t received any AOR yet. Will they send an email to my sponsor or to me? Also is it normal not to receive AOR yet cause it’s already beyond a month from the say they received my application. Is it possible to receive approval of OWP first than the AOR? Also, how soon can you start working if you already got the working permit? Thank you so much.

Just did my landing interview on Thursday Aug 22. From start to finish the process was over 15 months so although it's frustrating for anyone who applied over a year ago but I think they are just backlogged and slow.
Fingers crossed you all get some progress.

Could you please share your timeline and the office location that processed your file? This shed a light of hope for me. I have been waiting for 14.5 month and have not even received SA (Vancouver office). Were you stuck in background check?

Yes I was at the Vancouver office also. Back in May I had to provide more info. Then it seemed like my application was forgot about. Then it all happened very quickly, within 2 weeks of each other I got all the letters and everything updated.

Hi guys, our application was received on August 14th, 2018. My wife is Canadian(Sponsor), and I'm Chinese national(PA) working and living in Ontario. Is it normal taking this long?

Hello everyone. I have a quick question here. I received AIP on August 6th and the status on Ecas became “Decision Made” on both sponsor and PA sides on August 7th. I’ve been waiting for the invitation letter/email for the landing interview since then. Is it taking too long or is a month wait normal? My application has been processed at Innovation Hub Vancouver and I live in GTA (Etobicoke).

We recieved DM this month also with no updates in the "lines" We are also still waiting for correspondence. Our app should be at our local office already as it was sent there long ago cuz of Interview ( which the officer decided not to conduct once we got there lol)

Point is...we dont even have to wait for transfer times and are still waiting. From what I'm reading.. the wait is normal. There are still other steps they need to take to finalize. If ur worried u could always call.

Good luck !

Thank you for your reply. But there are a few sentences that I didn’t quite understand what you meant. Will you let me know what you meant where you said:

“We recieved DM this month also with no updates in the "lines””

And

“it was sent there long ago cuz of Interview ( which the officer decided not to conduct once we got there lol)”?

What I mean by no updates in the lines is on ecas and online...we see the DM but when u click on it there are no further updates. Last update was passing medical.

As for the 2nd part...from what I'm gathering, one of the steps they need to do when they give u Dm is transfer ur file from where it was processed to ur local office for finalization and to have there when ur called in for landing. I'm saying. Our file was already transferred to our local office back in Feb as we were called in for a relationship interview in May. When we got there the officer said he wasnt going to bother conducting the Interview as when he reviewed our file he decided he was satisfied with everything. Didnt even want our additional proof we brought with us. So my point was...we dont need to wait for the file to be transferred like alot of people, it's already at our local office...but even with that...we are still waiting to hear something also. ( saw Dm online a week ago but dont know when we got it as I hadn't been checking often)
