    What happens with family application when the head of the family is not applying

    I agree that we should answer what the question actually meant & not chase the terminology. At the same time, I would suggest the questioner to post question in a manner that everyone would understand without going into tangents. On a side note, the concept of "head of family" no longer valid!

    This is exactly what I have been talking about all the time. ECAS is not updated real-time. This tool has become completely USELESS. Test invitation was received last week & ECAS has no info about it!!! Everyone should just watch their mailbox instead of ECAS.

    Applicants on new routine (App no. C000XXXXX and email AOR)

    ECAS or no ECAS will not and should not affect processing. They still are supposed to process it efficiently. Remember that even for people whose processing started back in November came to know only now. There is no straight forward protocol as to when they will update ECAS to match what is...

    Applicants on new routine (App no. C000XXXXX and email AOR)

    They are still working on fixing ECAS. They haven't uploaded the processing line data on some applications. So, if it shows "received", it doesn't mean they are not processing yet. Its just not updated on ECAS yet.

    Applicants on new routine (App no. C000XXXXX and email AOR)

    guys, We received email AOR more than 2 months ago but see ECAS only today. Maybe it is already in process but not showing on ECAS. ECAS is only a status display software, CIC does not actually use the tool to process it. Also it depends on who is working on the file and will care to update ECAS...

    Applicants on new routine (App no. C000XXXXX and email AOR)

    It could be that for all email AOR under new routine they are waiting for all background reports and paperwork ready before being given to representative for final decision. Once that is done test & oath can happen in 2-3 weeks. This way the local office will rather focus on test,interview &...

    August 2014 Citizenship Applications

    I can understand that not receiving any of email or ecas or mail AOR is worrisome but why are others impatient? Its going to take 6-8 months minimum to process application & we all know that. By that calculation we should not expect anything communication until Jan or Feb 2015. Why the rush? We...
