Dear Mrs Sam its nothing to worry about. I have almost the same timeline as yours and my husband got approval letter on 3rd of November and my online status got changed to decision made this tuesday. Sometimes they dont update e-cas straight away. Wait for some days it will be updated inshaaAllah! :)

Hello All,
I recently applied for sponsorship for my wife in may 2012 and file was transferred to CHC Islamabad in July and current status say " medicals received" .I have 2 questions reg this process.
1- Although website says that it takes 26 months but realistically how long it is expected to take ?
2-Background and security checks are done by who? Do they have their own agency/personnel who conduct these background checks or do they check with local police depts in the concerning district ?

If they have written that it's being transferred to islamabad, I think it would be most probably in islamabad.. I have no idea regarding ottawa... Why would it be in ottawa? :s Is it the part of process?

till june 2012 islambad taking so long but know i heard it is working fast.. but ottawa's timing is unknown because this is new office no time line for that..but thing is they have to make us clear about our file location.. even i read few threads people sent proof of relationship to islamabad and then islamabad told them that their file is not in islambad.
 
Assalam O Alaikum Everyone,

I am new in this forum, My wife has applied for me in July, 2012, When I check my ECAS status, it says (APPLICATION RECEIVED) and when I click on it then I see this message! We received your application for permanent residence on August 7, 2012.
It has been like that till now, Can someone tell me what this actually means, or can someone from their experience tell me if my file has been transferred to Islamabad Office or is it still in MISSISSAUGA office? Thank you for the reply!
