Just a quick update. We returned the letter back to Sidney and it was signed as received on October 15. It been a little over 3 weeks now and there has not been any kind of update on Ecas other then that they sent the letter to us on October 2. Does Ecas update at some point to say that they...

My wifes application has been in progress (shows on Ecas) since early September. We were very careful about ensuring we would not have an issue so as to avoid an RQ. My wife is from the Philippines. In the Philippines, when you get married, they just automatically drop your middle name, and take...

My wifes timeline: We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on July 3, 2014. We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on July 3, 2014. Please consider delays in mail delivery before...

Quick Update: We were able to sign into ECAS today, and within that it showed my wifes name and not mine. So that's a good sign at least. Timeline: Delivered July 3 In progress Sept 5 Received AoR and Discover Canada book September 12

Thanks everyone for the responses. Sept15 - Yes we did write all the relevant information about my wife on the receipt, but we were just suprised that when they sent the discover canada book, the envelope and AoR were in my name and not my wifes name. Hopefully it's not a big issue and can be...

Thanks, we will enquire, but we found it very odd at the time. Because when you make the payment online the only name information it asks for is the name of the person on the credit card, I expected it to ask for a client ID number or something at the next step to confirm who the payment was...

My wife sent in her application early July and just yesterday received the AoR and Discover Canada book. The only odd thing was that the letter was sent to my name (I was born here in Canada). The only reason I can think of is that when we made the payment, it specifically states that you have...

When I spoke to an agent earlier this week, they told me all applications are recorded as received upon the day that they open it. They used the recent example of the increase in fees. That they sent back any applications that had not been opened by the date of the change. And they said even...

Not to burst anyones bubble (myself included) but I have spoken to a couple different CIC agents in the last couple weeks (including today and earlier this week). As would be expected, they have no idea when it is coming into effect. Even if they did know, they would not be able to say what the...

Thanks for all the suggestions! I had been thinking all this time that we would have to wait till day 1096. One part I left out was that I called a CIC agent this morning. They told me that as long as the calculation says you are qualified, you are able to sign and send it in. But everything...

I appreciate the sentiment of making sure that everything is filled out correctly, and ensuring there is no rejections. I am a detail oriented designated accountant, and we have gone through everything with a fine tooth comb to ensure there is no potential for rejection. But Eileenf, can you...

My wife has been in Canada since 2009. She became a PR on June 28, 2012. She has not left Canada since arriving in 2009. Her Pre-PR time more then fully makes up the maximum 365 days (730 half days). Based on the CIC calculator, the first day she is eligible to apply for citizenship is Friday...
