Good to hear, B47! This is the short waiting stage. Hopefully in 3 or 4 weeks, you will get get a letter re sponsorship decision. Then, after a few more weeks, you will get confirmation that the PR apps were received at the visa office in China. Anything missing or to be fixed will likely be indicated in that letter. If so, then you get that stuff together and send it back. And then the long stage of waiting will begin.

It's a pain in the butt but kind of exciting at the same time! Good luck B47...am rooting for you!

Thanks for your good wishes.  I'm very optimistic -- I can't see how anyone could reject our application.  But you never know . . . 

Meanwhile, I'm going back for a 3 week visit in 10 days, and hopefully we'll hear something about sponsorship around the time I return.

Cheers,
B47

Did you guys check the 'proceed with the application even if found ineligible to sponsor'? For some reason, I chose the other option. Can it be an issue?

It all depends on how you want to do it.  There are two fees, one for the sponsor ($75) and one for the applicant ($475).  You pay both fees upfront when you apply for PR.  Also when you apply, the sponsors app is checked first, then the applicant's app. 

 
If you check the box for "withdraw your sponsorship", and the sponsor is found ineligible for one reason or another, then the applicant's app will not be processed and the $475 fee returned to you.
 
If you check "proceed with the application for permanaent residence", and the sponsor is found ineligible, they will go ahead and still process the applicant's app and then obviously refuse it since there is no eligible sponsor.  The fees you paid will not be refunded.
 
Don't know why you would chose the later one.  You chose the "withdraw your sponsorship" right? which makes the most sense.  That's the way we did it.
