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

[rayman_m]

What does received line disappeared means? Is it you have only two lines?

Normally when CIC received application and sent ACK letter, they put two lines in eCas "Received" and "In Process". CIC takes off "Received" line from the eCAS when they are ready to transfer files to local office and leave only "In Process" line.

My eCas is now only one line "In Process" which I am assuming might be ready to transfer to the local office.

By first or second week of Jan 2015, July & Aug. email AOR applicants should get letters with test date. Under new routine, IN PROCESS means the file is sent to local office to setup test, Interview & Oath. Also, Call center agents are not knowledgeable, DO NOT TRUST THEM!

When received line disappears, usually it means someone is working on your file.

Finally E-Case Active!!!

After checking my status almost everyday on E-Case since the news broke that people with Email AOR have started seeing their status active , today is the day when I could see my status.

Though it just says "Received" at this time.

Hope it comes soon to processing and then the Test date.

Honestly, things have started moving at CIC for Email applicants.

Hi thepolestar,I am able to see in ecas today and moreorless same with your timeline.

Where did you get that info what new routine is? I am clueless about any pattern in new routine ( for email-AOR recipients)
I fully agree that Call center agents can not be trusted they need a better training.

My eCas status is "in process". Once I click "in process link" I see three lines

1. Received on date
2. Acknowledgment sent
3. In process from date.

My eCas status is "Received"... When I click that link, I see 2 lines:

1. Received on date
2. Acknowledgment sent (I received an email, but they're saying "consider delays in mail delivery")

Anyway... I don't see "In process" date/line...

Should I call them? or its still too early to worry?

Thanks

No point calling. After waiting for 30 min you will get the reply it is under 24 months. See our timelines . I sent them in June. I am sure yours will go to "in process soon" may be 3-4 weeks.
I will say wait and see how email-AOR from June and July are progressing.
Also they are upgrading systems these days.

Here it is (on CIC website right under where you see "received" or "in process")


Explanation

RECEIVED

(A decision has not been made yet.)

Application Received
Your application has been received at the Case Processing Centre in Sydney, Nova Scotia. Citizenship and Immigration Canada officials will review your application and the required documents and citizenship fees to ensure they meet the minimum processing requirements.

IN
PROCESS

(A decision has not been made yet.)

Application In Process
Your file has been sent to the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) office closest to your home for processing.

The CIC office will complete the necessary steps for a citizenship judge to make a decision on your application. If additional information or documents are needed, the CIC office will contact you.

If you are between the ages of 18 and 54, you will have to write the citizenship test. The citizenship test will determine if you meet the language and knowledge requirements for citizenship. You will be notified by mail about the time and place of your test. Once you receive your acknowledgment letter and the booklet called Discover Canada by mail, you should begin to study for the test. Applicants who are 55 years old or older and minors are not required to take the citizenship test.

An interview with a citizenship judge may also be required. Should this be necessary, you will be notified by mail about the time and place of your interview.

Application Withdrawn
If you wish to withdraw your application, you must advise us before a decision on your application has been made.

DECISION
MADE

(A decision has been made at this point.)

Applicant Notified
You will be notified by mail about the decision on your citizenship application.

If you meet the requirements, you will be invited to a citizenship ceremony where you will take the oath of citizenship and receive a certificate of Canadian citizenship.

If you do not meet the requirements, you will be informed in writing.

Thank you so much my friend for the information . Isn't it the old process though talking about "citizenship judge" and local office will ask you for document if required.
I got ATIP report 4 days back and it has no entry for local office. In fact most of the stuff says "not started".
I think on of the applicant here had same story everything except criminal check said not started.

I am not trying to negate your point. Just wanted to get info and clear info about the new process.
Hope we all get the test / oath invite soon

After C-24 bill got passed, CIC is in route to practice the single point processing. Which means the officers in CPC, Sydney has more power to approve/disapprove as files will not be presented to CJ unless for exceptional cases that are not approved by officers.

Thus, the files will be more likely will stay little longer with CPC, Sydney. Old process was CPC did only some work (data entry, checking documents, background checks) and then transfer to local office to review further. But under the new law along with all the routine process, CPC officers will have more to say in the files to eliminate local office extra work except verification of passports, entry/exits, IDs and other original documents from checklist..

Therefore, RQs are most likely will be issued by CPC officers instead of local office on the questions of residency proof. Also under the new application, CIC has the work/NOA documents with applications that eliminates extra work for local office too to dig onto the applicant's work history and residency proof issues.

In my case, Since my E-cas has been activated, I haven't found received line.
I mean from first day has been in process.

That is my understanding too. I think in "new routine" status "in-process" means officer at CIC Sydney has started working on it. Any RQ or any other stuff will be dealt with CIC Sydney.
In "old routine" status "in-process" is that it has been transferred to local office and local office CIC officer is working on it.

After getting ATIP report when I saw "not-started" in all column, I called call-center on Dec-15 and they guy said that my application is still in Sydney and it has been gone to in-process today. I checked ecas on Dec-16 and I see status changed to "in process."

You received ACK by regular mail but here we are commenting on who received by e-mail and 4-6 month these application held with CPC, Sydney.. We will come to know shortly if they have taken different approach for e-mail ACK applicants.

Call center agents are less knowledgeable people. They say only what we see in the e-CAS. My guess CPC, Sydney has done work on the files in past few months and now they are ready to provide their approvals and send to the local office these e-mail ack files.

I hope so . I received ATIP report on Dec-15. Probably Sydney send all the notes and comments after doing work on any application in "Ne routine" to Local office and local office just completes it.
My worry is ATIP generated on Dec-15 says not started for everything . One more user got the similar report.
I so wish they send us test invite.

Also got my ATIP report via email yesterday after my ecas was updated to 'in process'. Am trying to understand the 22 page report and under eligibility-prohibitions, eligibility-assessment,eligibility-knowledge and oath , everything stated 'not started' but the due date indicated 2015/12/01. Do you happen to have this on your report, what does this mean?

Same situation like me. More discussion on ATIP report on page 15 of this thread.
