E-cas showed in process on May 4th but they actually started processing my application on May 1st. My passport is still in Buffalo....

I actually think that everyone sends medicals to Ottawa, regardless of if your application is in Buffalo or Ottawa. So while they may be asking for you to send medicals to Ottawa, it looks like you application is still in Buffalo. I think the only way to know for sure is to either contact them...

Thanks! I am pretty surprised by the speed too! Ecas said they started processing on May 1, so it wasn't much time until I got my PPR Lilbabu, I am currently in BC. newbrunswicker, i received the email from Buffalo but my file had been in Otttawa. My understanding is that Ottawa is. Of able...

I received my PPR today!

Congrats Kunal09! And congrats hanyin2012...I knew that you would hear something soon!

That makes sense. I guess it would only matter if you then wanted to add your spouse to your application.

I second both kunal and lilbabu that you should try and wait it out. Once 30 weeks have passed, contact Buffalo and if that doesnt work, I would talk to your MP as they have had success in pushing through applications of other applicants whose timeline's stretch beyond the standard times...

Hey hanyin2012, Have you attempted to contact Buffalo? Is there a particular reason you want to withdraw (other than pure frustration)? I would say that if your draft was cashed, then your file is definitely in someone's hand. The November applicants have been caught in a tough spot...

Yes I am American. I had kind of figured going into this process that my case might move slightly faster since I do have the advantage of being from the US. Ideally I would hope that I am not getting special treatment due to my nationality, but it does appear that CIC has some sort of "risk"...

e-cas is now showing they started processing my application on May 1st.

No, you wont see anything on Ecas indicating that a medical request is sent. I was able to access Ecas before I got my AOR/MR and it only said my application was received on November 14, 2011. My AOR and MR came in the same email from Ottawa with the subject line "Acknowledgement of Receipt...

e-cas has updated to say that my medical results have been received!

I think if you want to join their tracksheet, you need to post in their thread with your timeline details and request to be added.

I think you should be hearing from them soon. As I said, I was able to access e-cas a couple of weeks before I received my AOR and MR from CPP-O.

While it sucks to have to wait, I don't think there is much you can do. Back in 2011, before the Ottawa office opened, people were routinely waiting more than 4 months to receive an AOR. Everyone's expectations changed once we saw applications moving quickly, but I think we all need to...

I received my AOR and MR on February 28th. My case was transferred from Buffalo to Ottawa and I did my medicals on March 6th. Have you heard anything about your application? I would expect you should receive something soon...

I think you have misunderstood this bulletin. It appears to only apply if you obtained PR status through a spousal sponsorship. This means that if your relationship with your sponsoring partner falls apart within 5 years of receiving PR status, then you have to wait a until 5 years after you...

Hi newbrunswicker, I was able to access e-cas about a week or two before I got my AOR, but I am not sure this is typical. I was also using my client ID with the - included.

I just wanted to update everyone in this thread that I got my AOR on February 28th from CPP-Ottawa. I think the rest of November applicants can expect AORs soon! Also, I was able to access e-cas for about two weeks before I got an AOR by using my Client ID number as Bull said.

I sent my application in early November and I am now able to access e-cas and it says "We received your application for permanent residence on November 14, 2011.". My draft was cashed on January 11th. It seems that late October/November applicants have been caught in a bit of a hole due to...
