We just had our interview and failed.

Timeline:
April 12 Application Received
May 15 Medical Results Received
June 16 Submitted Schedule A
June 26 ECAS shows We started processing your application
July 13 "Great News! Your application for Permanent Residence has arrived in Hong Kong" e-mail received
Feb 7 Interview Convocation e-mail
March 14 Interview, documents returned, told us our intentions to immigrate to Canada are suspect

Want to warn people that the interview can just be a ruse. Our interviewer had no intention of listening to us. In the first 5 minutes she accused us about lying about being nervous, she complained that we sat too far apart, she sprung gotcha questions all over the place which my Chinese partner had a difficult time with because she was nervous, and then she kicked me out of the room. The whole interview was done in less than 15 minutes and she didn't want to look at any of the evidence we brought. Disappointed we wasted our time even going to it.

Hi Kaenicolas, yes they did. On 8 Feb, exactly one month before status on ECAS became DM.

Hi everyone,

My status has changed to DM today on ECAS. How long does it take for PPR after DM?

My GCKey changed to "approved" 5 days after DM on ECAS. Received COPR in the mail 2 days after (i.e. sent out on same day as GCKey approved). No PPR because no need for Visa for my wife's PP.

AlmostMove,

My wife's case is just like yours. Got "approved" today but no "messages below" and nothing by email. So I guess, like Lucky2018, we just wait for landing papers by mail. Please keep us updated and I will do the same.

Got my wife's COPR by mail yesterday!
