    February 2012 Applicants - Join here!

    The lady I spoke to put me on hold and called some other department to find out info on our file. She said that they are processing the applications in Ottawa, then will be transferring them to LA for them to issue the Visa, just like Buffalo used to do. It's CIC though and who knows what the...

    February 2012 Applicants - Join here!

    Hi Guys, I applied after you (March) and my application was transferred on May 29th after I got approval. I called CIC today and the woman I spoke with told me that my application was "In Process". ECAS isn't reliable as I've read from some other posters on here so all of yours might be in...

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    I just got off the phone with a nice lady at the CIC call centre. Our file was "transferred" to LA on May 29th. It was actually "transferred" to Ottawa on that date and our status is "In Process" even though ECAS says application received. She said it shouldn't take much longer and that LA will...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    I just got off the phone with an excellent call centre lady. She told us our file was in Ottawa, and will be transferred to LA for the final Visa issuance. She reassured me and said that our file is "In Process" even though it doesn't say that on ECAS. I asked her what will happen to our...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    So..I sent one of those case specific inquiries to the LA office last week. I wanted to know if they received our package of supporting documents (including our FBI check!) since it said our file was transferred to LA and that's where we sent our documents. Our sponsorship approval letter said...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Amoss, what number did you use to contact CIC? I tried the 800 number but the lady said she doesn't have access to our file from that number.

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    I was just wondering about the letter for file numbers. I noticed from reading through posts on here that some people that needed to be interviewed or went through the appeal process had a B####, then after they got approved from their appeals or whatnot, their files changed to an F####. I guess...

    Honeymoon after 1 stage approval (US outland)?

    I don't know if this question has been asked many times or not, but I can't seem to find anything. We want to finally go for our honeymoon to Jamaica in August. We have received sponsorship approval on May 29 and our file has been transferred to LA. There is nothing showing "In Process" on ECAS...

    How much time does it usually take after transfer to get an "in process" statement on ECAS? They've had our file for 2 weeks now, how much longer am I looking at to wait until I hear something?

    What do you do if your natural rights are not respected at the appeal?

    I cannot believe that I just read something like this. To me, this is not justice. Which jurisdiction did this happen in? I believe you could also make a complaint with the Canadian Judicial Council here: http://www.cjc-ccm.gc.ca/english/conduct_en.asp?selMenu=conduct_judicial_conduct_en.asp I...

    Non-convicted Misdemeanor?

    I found that information as well when researching. His record has been expunged in Iowa and according to them (Iowa court), there is no record now of the charge and that's why his State record is clean. I think it will be a problem if CIC requests copies of his court records since they don't...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    I just logged in using his number on my sponsorship letter. It does show our address as well. It just says that they've received his application March 7 and his med results were received. We got our letter by mail, and not by email so I guess this is how we're going to receive things in the...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    I think we should be fine also. His record has been expunged in Iowa and I read in one of the CIC manuals that if the record is expunged, they don't rely on the "committed offense" provision. YAY. How does one log in to E-CAS with the primary applicants number? We didn't receive one for my...

    Los Angeles Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Our file was transferred to LA on May 29th. Status on E-Cas shows that Application has been received as well as medical results received..not much else on there. I've sent in more supporting documents as well as the FBI report a week ago. We hope they got them. We're probably going to hit a snag...

    Married status, Income Tax and benefits/credits

    Parker, it's funny that you mention what's going on with you. I logged into My Account and it shows that my HST credit that I will be receiving on July 5th will be $4.50. They took off the "debt" that I "owed" them. I wrote another email to the minion and so far, no response. I initially started...

    Police Certificates- Open the envelope: Yes or No

    I would open it..as someone posted, you don't have to send them in sealed. We got my husband's first FBI report back and I'm thankful we looked at it because there were errors on it. If we hadn't of looked at it, we'd be in a pickle right now. We had time to correct the information and be sent a...

    March 2012 applicants, join here! : )

    @Bobokiki, I didn't receive anything by email even though I provided my email address. All I got was a letter in the mail and I was able to use my UCI provided to me in the letter to log into E-CAS on the government site. I wouldn't be worried if I was you. Their working on applications...

    Non-convicted Misdemeanor?

    Thanks for posting on here guys, I feel a bit better about this. I found some information about non-convictions not being treated as convictions for the purpose of Canadian Immigration, but yes, we'll have to wait and see....
