first and foremost congrats to those who have already received AOR's and sponsorship approvals, very happy for you all!
secondly, I had a question regarding the UCI/client numbers..
my wife who is sponsoring me (US citizen via outland CPP-O) is a Naturalized Canadian Citizen. (born in the Philippines, came to Canada with her parents when she was young and is now a citizen). on question #7 of her IMM1344, the question stated to list down her client ID number since she was a naturalized citizen. she does not ever recall having a PR card as she was too young and went through the citizenship process through her parents. not completely sure where to find this number, we deducted that it is probably the 7 digit number listed on the front of her citizenship card. (which we also provided a copy of in the application as required on her document checklist)
anyway, we decided to check the status online on the CIC site, and when we were given the option to type in her UCI number, it wouldn't go through because it said that the number must be an 8 digit number. after getting through with one of the call center agents, they said that indeed the UCI number is an 8 digit number, but it will be issued AFTER they start going through our application. they proceeded to give us the whole "only processing applications from July" info that can be found on the website.
my question is this, if it is indeed true that she will be issued a UCI after they open up our application, will that 7 digit number from her citizenship card which was inputted on question 7 of IMM1344 cause any sort of delays or problems? we're crossing our fingers that the agent reviewing our app puts the pieces together and realizes that we inputted something in the wrong place and gives us a break. our application other than this mishap was very organized and well put together. hopefully we're just worrying over nothing. take care!
. LOL, I know that's not how it works.
