Hey! I hope you're all in good health.


Guys please do this survey and maybe we can be heard about how e-cas is working. I did the survey and I asked them to update it on a regular basis rather then updating the service a month or so after a person has already received a phone call or email. If they update it regularly and gives us a progress report or something then we might not even have to call the visa office so often. I am hoping if enough people do this then they will listen.

How can our files still be in boxes if you just got your e-cas updated? I would surely hope not because such news if verified would be extremely devastating!!!!
Hey still waiting! I really dont think ours files are in boxes, because my ecase got updated too! I really think they are starting to work on them, and poor Beirut, they are not a civilized country (unlike Ankara or Jordan) I am sure they will be issuing visas in the upcoming weeks :D Have a great weekend all :D

they working on the ecase from canada not from the embassy so when they want to update any file they will call on the embassy asking about it the embassy will open that file and say what they found like medical received .....
I wouldn't think that this is exactly how it is done; since files get updated randomly with many people seeing no change to their e-cas from beginning to end. So I don't know about that; but the truth is I will be very happy when you get your PPR as happy as I'd be if I get mine because you and Hab and Farid and others have been waiting for it for sooooooooooooooooo long. It's been a year for me:(

yes we ordered my CAIPS since 2 weeks,

calling them from 20 or more of us maybe a good Idea to press on them

I will call them tomorrow
Yes exactly, I will call too. I hope everyone who has a file in Beirut to call the embassy tomorrow up until 1pm local Beirut time; maybe one of us would get a relevant piece of info!!! Hopefully It'll work:)

yes monday then.

I am thinking also to make a group of us and going to the embassy talking to them in a very very polite manner may be that will make them work or let one from the visa section talk to us ? what do you think ?
I don't think we should physically go there because we might seem like "protesters"; I guess I'm scared to do something that would harm the process of our files. What do you think?
