Spousal sponsorship

[Sonali1990]

application for Permanent Residence changed from application received to in process so we will have the per arrival now? or we will have it when the status changes to DECISION MADE?

Not everyone gets pre arrival letter. But it is usually before DM!

What’s the difference between gckey and ecas? GCKey seems to have much more info, and I don’t get the point of ecas!
Thanks

They update differently and don't always show same info. Two key examples:
-ecas shows decision made, gckey doesn't.
-you can get correspondence through gckey. This may be important at later stages.

Apart from corresopndence I saw no changes in gckey between eg roughly decision made stage until it showed 'complete' - AFTER the visas / copr were issued.

I'm not saying the split makes sense, they smell of having been implemented at different stages and not fully tied in to same information. But as of right now for outsiders they do serve distinct purposes.

I got my SA and AIP on Jan 26 2021. on the tracking site, both sponsor and principal application says decision made. I received this in my "eligibility passed" letter.

1. has anyone else received this?
2. how long does it take for them to contact you?
3. whats the next step? CoPR?

Here is a link to an screenshot from the "eligibility passed" letter that I received.

If someone could assist me it would be great.

I sent my spousal immigration documentation just a few days ago but I made a mistake on one of the forms for the DOB of my spouse. Now based on the country she lives the IMM5546 form is required, it's the Military Service form. However, she has no past record of military service nor has she ever held a military rank ever. I included the form anyways but the DOB on it is incorrect. Now I am concerned, if my application will be denied or delayed because of that DOB error, or will that form just be disregarded because she does not have any military service background at all and if that form is only to be filled out only for persons with a background.

The form was a country specific requirement but on the checklist it said to include it for PA if they have military service background, even though she doesn't I included and we just wrote N/A in all the categories because she really has nothing to fill out there, she even signed it but I guess we were both just irresponsible on that form and messed up the DOB.

If someone could get back to me, I would really appreciate it cause I'm actually worried about this.

If that typo was only on that form, I doubt would have an effect. Nonetheless to be sure, you can submit a webform - may as well wait a few weeks - with updated and corrected. Include letter of explanation that you noticed typo and corrected, attached, and she has no military service but you included for completeness.

Can I submit the webform and the letter of attachment both online instead of resending another document by courier? If yes, can you send me the link cause I've tried finding it and I can't see it anywhere.

Or do I need the UCI number first before I can actually submit the webform, because currently the documents are still in transit and haven't been recieved yet.

Please let me know, and thank you for your kind help.
