Hey guys, so I applied back in February but my application had an error on it. I resent it on Sept 24th and it arrived on Sept 28th, so that should be the date received on my AoR. I’ll watch this post and keep everyone updated. I’m estimating 1-2 weeks till I see something on ECAS. haven’t had...

Thanks! I’ve gotten the same advice elsewhere. Just gonna be such a hassle compiling everything again but that’s on me. I do wanna ask, do you think I should put something on my envelope to state this is an application in process already, or something like an urgent sign? Or do you think they’d...

Oh man, so I got my application back today (may have arrived this weekend). So they've sent a letter dated September 1st, and my problem was that I post-dated the signature for 1st May, while it reached them April 14th. Really stupid mistake on my part and I'm trying to figure out where my head...

ECAS - Electronic Client Application Status... I’m assuming the E is for electronic because the site just says Client Application Status. Basically this site for checking your application status: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?app=ecas&lang=en AOR - Acknowledgment of Receipt: a...

It'll probably update in 1-2 days, don't worry too much about it

Now that you say it, I think my days were quite close.. I sent my application in April even though my card would expire in June to do the minimum days. Memory is bad but it must’ve been ~740 days. I’ve been a student mostly.

So I’ve been only checking the status through ECAS, I believe the first day I saw it must’ve been the 3rd or 4th of September. I’d estimate 1 or 2 days for the time you’re asking about, though. I’ve never gotten an AoR email, checked both inbox and junk. It would be nice to get one, but to...

My brother's card arrived today! That was a quick and smooth process. Now I'm worried about mine since I need it more urgently haha... still no update on ECAS and it's bothering me that our applications were sent together, and yet one has been approved so quickly and the other is...

I'm quite sure it depends on where you live, but i'm expecting it to take about 7-10 days so sometime next week hopefully. I'm in the GTA.

Ah nice, if you’ve got the Decision Made I wouldn’t worry too much about seeing anything on GCKey. When it’s Decision Made, most likely you’ve been approved and they’re preparing to mail your card out. Just check once a day, eventually it’ll change to Complete and say your card has been mailed...

My brother's card was mailed out yesterday, no update for me yet. Really hoping mine starts soon! Here's his timeline: Permanent Resident Card We received your application for a permanent resident card on April 14, 2020. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s)...

I just read up on that, not familiar with inter-provincial moves but that really sucks, very strict on their part :/ It might help to call the ICBC helpline and explain the situation to them? The processing time for an application time has been at 164 days for a while now and that’s down to the...

I agree with you, that they haven’t updated the standard answer, but I kinda get the feeling that they’re probably getting close to normal processing times (starting July) given what I’ve read here. Now it’s just a case of getting through huge backlogs so that’s why they’re sticking the...

Of course! I did try linking him on my account but it never worked. Do you think if I made him his own account it would help?

I’ve replied above (you’ll find dates there), nothing for me yet but my brother’s application says decision made on ECAS. sent both at the same time

Yep renewal. Already said haha: Received: 14th April AoR: 1st September

Me and my brother’s applications were mailed together (separate packages) and his is at decision made. Received on 14th and review began on 1st. Nothing on mine yet.

never mind then, I sent it from Mississauga so that probably makes no difference haha

Nice! Where’d you send your application from? Curious because I think that might play a part for when it starts processing, given I sent mine mid-April and no update.

Second this, remember that you’re waiting AT LEAST a year before citizenship is granted and you want to be able to pursue opportunities and travel with ease in that time.
