I called the CIC call centre yesterday. The agent I talked with said that even though the system shows mail was sent in April, it was in fact sent in June via regular mail.

He also confirmed that my application is "in transit" from Sydney to Vancouver office.

Here is my ecas:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on April 17, 2014.

We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on April 17, 2014. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

We started processing your application on June 17, 2014.

transferring to local office a month after AOR, good news

Not to sound negative, but some people mentioned calling the Call Center several times over several days and getting a different answer each time on the "local transfer" piece.

Cheers.

2.We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on April 28, 2014. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

I used my client ID number
 
But in my wife and son's case there is nothing in eCAS. It's been 2.5 month now and I wonder what could be the reason for such delay to show In "Process"..
 
@ rayman_m: In our case I was able to track all family members at the same day on CIC website.
Maybe you can call CIC and give them that question. Good luck.
