Here is the step by step information how to link your profile to My CIC. Somebody in the past described it and it worked for me.

1. Go to this link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/e-services/account.asp
2. Select the blue button with "Continue to GCKEY"
3. It will direct you to this landing page: https://clegc-gckey.gc.ca/j/eng/l?ReqID=s242cec6e6186f71c550ceaca98ff8a142c1ae0fe8
4. Key in your username and password and click sign in button.
5. Click continue button.
6. At the terms and condition page, click I accept button.
7. At the identity validation, key in your answer and click continue button.
8. Link an existing application to this account.Then click the blue button which says "link application to this account".
9. When you reach this page that shows "Link an existing application to this account ", go further below down until you reach "What did the applicant apply for?".
10. Under the category select the drop down menu bar as permanent residence.
11. Under the sub-category select the drop down menu bar as family classes(Spouse). (which applicable for you)
12. For the application details, drop down menu select your Application number and Family Name
13. Fill out the information for application number.
14. For the Applicant's personal information, Take note of the INSTRUCTION:
Applicant's personal information
passport information. leave blank city and country name
15. Other Application Information part, key in province,city,current marital status: married,Number of family members (2),
16.Click search my account.
17. Once a match is found, it will say:
Thank you for entering information.
We compared it with our system and found : an application that matches info...
Note: by linking your application to this account, you will now receive all messages and xxxxx
Select the LINK MY APPLICATION BUTTON.
18. Then it will link application.
19. Then it will show you the account in your main page:
Under View my submitted applications or profiles, in the column action click status and messages.
20. It will direct you to this Application/profile details
Thanks for the instructions akshatk but i have no idea why I cant link my wife's application. Followed your instructions still no luck. This is frustrating trying it almost everyday.
Also my wife's passport got only one name in her passport which is only her name showing up in Surname field and her firstname is blank, hope that is not confusing (I am guessing that could be an issue)

But I can check the ECAS update the way her passport is which I thought I could do the same to link her app.

If not i will keep trying again and again until i link this. Hopefully soon. :(

oh no! sleepless nights :'(... been trying to link our applications to my CIC and still no luck :-\... Thanks for all your suggestions, I've tried them all and really don't know what's wrong ???. Probably our application is not yet in myCIC system? :(

I can see status in eCAS but still, for more than 2 weeks no updates yet...for SPONSOSHIP APPLICATION>In Process>2. Started processing application..., for PR APPLICATION STATUS>Application Received>2.Medical results have been received.

What are these all means? I know that every line they put means a lot. Please help me understand every single lines. Thank you all in advance and may we all continue to give feedback and updates for the benefit of everyone in here! Good luck to all of us! :) :) :)

Hi
Yes your guess is right.
Even i (pa) dont have surname in passport. I wrote just given name . But after giving so many trials i was able to link my applicatiin by giving full name

Thank you so much everyone for your messages. My husband and I can not believe it. I personally feel like someone has made a mistake. I was thinking of calling CIC to double check. It just doesn't make sense that his application was processed in one week. He has extensive travel history, lived in India for 2 years and he is an Iranian citizen. I thought his background check will take forever, but it seems the visa officer was satisfied with our application. We submitted all of his documents up front and we didn't have any red flag in our application. However, I will not rest until he has the visa on his passport. In case, the visa officer changes his mind or something else happens:)
How did you know that you do not have red flag?

I will keep trying until this works out, i know i am doing something wrong but the name shouldnt be an issue since I tried the Application Number, UCI, Family name and left firstname blank.

And the rest following the same as instructed to link no luck at all.

Will update once i can link this cant wait for it to happen soon.

No mistake! I've heard of cases where people were approved in just a few weeks so this is normal if you're lucky and your paperwork was in line. Congrats!
Thank you. I honestly hope and pray that everyone will hear the good news they are waiting for and be reunited with their loved ones soon.

congrats, it's a world record :) !!

did u ordered gcms notes for your application?
Thanks, I believe someone else had the speedy process with Colombia's visa office too, so I might not be the only one :) No, I haven't ordered my notes yet, I was planning to order them at the beginning of November. I think once my husband lands in Canada, I will order my notes because I am curious to know how they processed our application.

I was born in August so it may be my lucky month, I don't know :) but I believe it, when I see the visa, I still do not want to get my hopes up :)
