    eCAS is not updated yet. I received test invite letter before my eCAS got updated. I think eCAS gets updated randomly or in my case 4-5 days after they send the letter.

    Citizenship is a matter of passport holder and the issuing country. USA or any country does not have any right. Only issuing country can question if one has used the passport for any travel.

    My country does not allow dual citizenship. I have valid visitor visa for US. US needs passport+valid visa for entry in United States. I do not need to enter US as canadian citizen. My current country allows travel within 3 months period of acquiring other citizenship without renouncing it.
