Hi Fox82 :)

I'm in the same boat as Sheila La... Still no news on my end too but I do look at this post every day in the hopes to see some good news from somebody who applied at the Cairo Embassy :)

But on the happy side... I just bought my plane tickets to go to Egypt next month ;D

I wonder if I should visit the Canadian embassy when i am up there :-\

hi Mels and Sheila la ...

i wanted to share some thoughts ,,, in my e -case it said .. application recieved on SAME DAY MY WIFE SENT THE WHOLE APPLICATION TO CIC-M ( october 10th is the day we sent all package to cic &november 4th we got first approval letter and application was sent to cairo )

so it should reach in cairo ummm for example 2 monthes after november 4th ,,,it should be stated this way but it was stated as it was recived on october 6th.....

just confused ,,is it a mistake from them or is it normal ,,,???

Not Expected as this is a child sponsorship
Hi fox82

My ecas says application received January 21. I am assuming this is the date Cairo received the file as sponsorship was approved January 14. So that is 7 days to get to Cairo.

Hi fox

There are 2 columns, one for the sponsor and one for the applicant. Mine under sponsor says "decision made". Under applicant, it say "applicaton received". If I select the application received link, it further tells me the date they received the application. It appears this should be the date the visa office received the file, not Mississauga. It almost sounds like yours is backwards.

hi sheila .. what do u mean by backward ??

i tell u exactlly my case..

There are 2 columns, one for the sponsor and one for the applicant, under sponsor says "decision made''

Under applicant, it say "applicaton received". If I select the application received link, it further tells me the date they received the application ,, and this date is 10th october

on this day (10th october) they recived our application in Mississuague ( all the package for PR and sponsorship)

i know it shoulb be the date they recive PR application in cairo and this date can not be the same date we put our application in Mississauge lolol

so i say it might be just a mistake from them or they consider both applications for sponsorship and PR as one package do u get me ??

so what do u think .,.. do i need to care about it or the main thing my application is recived already

fox, I think maybe they have just entered the date incorrectly. I think you should be okay as you know they have received your file. I don't think it should be a problem.
