ECAS is updated on days other than Tuesday. I have had my own ECAS updated on a Saturday at one point, and then another update was on a Thursday. This is besides the point, since many applicants check ECAS daily regardless, hoping to see some update.

And no, the app is not approved, affiliated, or endorsed by CIC. Much like your computer browser you use to access ECAS on the website. The app is just a convenient browser that remembers the information and allows you to get your status with one click. If anyone has constructive feedback about...

Thank you for your comments. Yes, I do have stake in the app, as the publishers will offer me a free iPad if there is a certain number of apps sold. I am not sure why some of you think that is wrong. Since when is marketing a bad thing? I myself use the app as I have an application in process...

Hello friends, The wait is over! A new app called CICAppStatus https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cicappstatus/id654435465?ls=1&mt=8 is now available in the Apple app store. This is an awesome app that allows you to check the detailed status of your PR/citizenship application with the click of a...

For those interested in trying the app and providing feedback, I was able to obtain a few redemption codes from the publishers (app will not cost you anything as opposed to $1.99). If you would like to participate in trying the app and providing feedback, please PM me. You will be able to keep...

Anyone else who has downloaded the app have any feedback? Thanks in advance. The direct link is https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cicappstatus/id654435465?ls=1&mt=8

Andriy155, you and I are on the same page. That was the first suggestion I made to the publishers when I started using the app. For me, it saves me a couple of minutes (maybe I am a slow typist, and also check more than one application) every time, but I completely agree that the app should...

Hi CanuckForEver, I am not sure I am following your post, but I will do my best to clarify based on my understanding of the product while testing it prior to its release. CIC had no role whatsoever in developing the app, and did not grant the publishers any special access to their servers. The...

Hello dbss, I have inquired with the publishers yesterday and got response this morning. The app is not officially supported by CIC, and has no relationship with CIC. The app pretty much simulates the actions that would otherwise be taken by an applicant to access ECAS status using a web...

Hi montreal1009, Two things. First, your wife will be able to retake the exam, as per the "enhancement" announced on June 3 by the minister. Also, you can now apply for a separation of files, if you want to take the oath sooner. Congrats and good luck to you both.

Thank you nguyentu2001 for your feedback. Indeed, the time I save using this application is worth much more than the $1.99. And for the astute users of the forum, ECAS is updated much more often than on Tuesdays (see quoted text below). I have seen two updates to my own ECAS over the last year...

ECAS updates much more frequently than once a week. I have seen my own ECAS update on a Saturday and then on a Thursday. The claim that CIC is making on the website that it's only updated on Tuesdays is simply outdated. If you can't afford the $1.99 or simply have too much time on your hands to...

Also wanted to mention, the app provides the ability to consolidate an indefinite number of CIC applications, which could be useful for commercial purposes (i.e. consultants or lawyers wanting to keep track of hundreds (or thousands) of clients' applications). For these commercial purposes...

Thank you for your feedback. Indeed, what a scam at $1.99. I can't imagine how $1.99 is worth saving a few minutes of data entry and navigation every single day, for those who check their ECAS frequently. For the rest of us who value their time, this app is marvellous. I bought it as soon as...

Got a reply saying that Andoid app is being worked on right now and will be released soon. Thank you for your interest.

Authentication is using https (Secure Socket Layer) for encryption, which is the same level of security that is used when you login to ECAS from a web browser. The app does nothing more or less than simulate your actions when you login to ECAS. Using the app is virtually identical to logging in...

Thank you all for your replies and interest. The app stores all personal information on YOUR iOS device. No personal information ever leaves your device. No external servers store any of your personal information. That was the whole point of this app, is to keep all your information on your...

Hello friends, The wait is over! A new app called CICAppStatus is now available in the Apple app store. This is an awesome app that allows you to check the detailed status of your PR/citizenship application with the click of a button. Very simple app that gets the job done. Personal info never...
