OLD STORY:

Hi,
I have some update on my file. It is weird update though. Long story. sorry about that.
I am on work permit here and I have a representative from my employer who applied for WP renewal recently(september 16th). I applied for PR by myself(Dec 24th 2010) and I received a letter from CIC about confirmation. I logged online and checked the status and here is how it was earlier.
We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2010. We reviewed your application and sent you a letter on March 9, 2011. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us..
Recently, I have a change in address and at the same time, my employer representative has filed my work permit renewal. Since I have a change in address, I emailed my new address to CIC. Today, I have a status change and the change is:
We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2010. We reviewed your application and sent you a letter on March 9, 2011 to <<MY EMPLOYER REPRESENTATIVE ADDRESS>>. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us. If we have sent the letter to the wrong address, contact us.
WP: has to go to representative office.
PR: has to go to my new home address.
CIC messed up addresses for my WP with PR application. I just dont know what should I do now. Please advise.
Thanks,
satya.

Hello All,
I dont know what to say about what I heard today. I want to share it with see what people would say.
Story line: I sent an update with my address change to CIC. There was no response from them and I was persistent. I sent them a reminder this time since E-CAS still shows old address after waiting for a month . Here is the response today.

Our records indicated your mailing address is exactly as you have it listed below, <<<NEW Mailing Address>>>>
e-Cas is for applications processing within Canada only.
Immigration cases being processed in Visa offices outside Canada use a system different from that used to process similar applications in Canada. As a result, the e-Client Application Status (e-CAS) does not reflect the status of cases being processed in Buffalo.
Do not use the CIC e-Cas on-line change of address system. Your new address will not be downloaded to your file in Buffalo.
============
what does this mean? Should they want me to stop using E-CAS forever or just for address change only? Do you guys have any idea? May be its not worth thinking about. But, wanna pass it down with you guys once.
Atleast, I am happy that some one has touched my file once and sorry, its a very lengthy post.
Thanks,
satya.
