Traitor! >:( ;)

Any change is a welcome sign! :) My address appears on my eCas as well... :) Great!

Hello everyone, I still think that "Since App Reached CIO" column is obsolete data. We know for a fact that at the begining they were simply not processing the PhD stream applications waiting for something (either additional resources, more clear operational instructions, whatever). Therefore...

Hi crazyleader, Would you be so kind to share your timeline with us in detail? It will be tremendous help to this forum members. As far as the request is concerned, I believe anyone that did not send the proof (such as certification letter from their bank) that they have enough cash sitting in...

Re: GUYS REPLY URGENTT Well, that is all your options, really: 1)Show that you have property in the home country 2)Show that you have family, wife, parents, siblings, children in your home country 3)Show that you have some pre-arranged career opportunities in your home country 4)Just be firm...

Baxa - when you do not know something, don't confuse others! Here is the quote from the newest operations bulletin: "Instructions As of May 29, 2012, clients from visa required countries residing in Canada and holding a valid study or work permit may apply for a visitor visa counterfoil at...

You probably do not own anything in your name yet. But if you do, have ownership documents translated/notarized with you. Also, you are probably not married/engaged. But, if you are, make sure you have proof with you. Last thing remaining is to show that your parents and your siblings live in...

No, do not apply to Vegreville any more! Things just changed. You need to apply to Ottawa! See the link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2012/ob426.asp

More good news! Excellent - keep them coming! :) Have we heard from MASOUD? He ought to be the next geting the MEDs...

So, if we are right, you should see your MEDs in a week's time or so... :) Look forward to hearing the news from you... Then one month from that time I should be getting mine... :D

Regarding our tracker file - I think it is more relevant to track (a) number of overall days passed since date PER was received, and (b) number of days passed since date of PER till MEDs received. What do all of you think? My reasoning is this: At the beginning, CIC office in NS was not...

BIG HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO HAVE RECEIVED MEDICAL REQUESTS! What a great development of events! I do agree with TyrusX - it seems that AOR (Acknoledgment of Receipt) have become absolete with this new stream/process. We shall await for the medical requests as the next step, not some...

Hi there... First three questions were answered by kg.jadu well. Regarding your 4th question - if you have sufficient liquid funds saved up sitting in an account, just get an official bank letter certifying the amount of money in your (savings) account and don't worry about anything else. Those...

Thank you, Brit_Immigrant! I also found this route to be my best bet. As I mentioned earlier though, since I am finished with all my seminars and coms (I am ABD), in order for me to apply for the study permit extension I just have to get a letter and enrolment confirmation from my university...

Yes, but as I understand this, ONLY AFTER I actually get my PhD degree. I am still about a year away from the dissertation defence... :(

You probably mean that PhD students, just like any other students, may work ON CAMPUS up to 20 hours per week without any special work permit. They can also apply for an OFF CAMPUS employment authorization based on their student permit, also up to 20 hours per week (no limit during recess)...

Hello websphereguy... It should happen any day now. It took 12 days in my case. Got my PER on the 5th of April and eCAS was updated on the 17th of April. Does anyone have an idea what kind of change, if any, should we see in our eCAS status when AOR is issued?

Congratulations websphereguy! :) I am happy for you! I was away and just saw your message... A lot of new activity on this thread. Yet, not a single AOR in sight... :(

Congratulations! Welcome to the PER club... :)

Yes, i go to the cic website, click on "Check application status" which takes me to the link you provided. I tried both my UCI and the file number they provided in PER letter - to my surprise (NOT!) :) ), both ways I got the same status ;D .
