We have the same timeline: AR March 17th 2019, AOR MAY 7th 2019.
I also have outland dependents and my application is on hold since March 12th, when I got RFV email.
Tired of not getting objective answers from IRCC, I waited until I could apply for a BOWP and then leave Canada to be with my family.
Now, I just got my BOWP application approved today and now we can travel to Canada.
I decided to leave Canada because the main excuse for not processing my PR application was that the PA and the dependents should be together. Well, soon we will be in Canada and there will be no more excuses. At least that's what I am thinking...
@duster don't you think you could do the same?!... Just my 2 cents...
