Dear tSonoma
Don't worry many applicants transferred their file to local office two times in ECAS. Reason is still to be sort out why it happens.

Hello Everyone,

Any news for Tuesday? I see no changes on my e-Cas. Too early I guess.

All the best,

SFD

My Ecas (online status) shows that my file was transferred from Sydney to the local office in Surrey BC two times. First at Mar 11 and second time at Mar 30.

Previously the CIC call center agent told me that my file was received in the local office on Apr 2 .

Today I called CIC to inquire the agent was nice and helpful he said no mail was sent to me and that I am in the line to be invited for the test however it seems my file was sent to Vancouver then Surrey but he was not certain how or why it happened. also said this may cause some delay in the application process ??? as I have to wait for others who are ahead of me and should not expect the CIC office to squeeze my application ahead of others.

I am confused and disappointed I think I will call them again late next week if I don't hear from the local office

What do you think ?

It usually takes at least 2 months to get invited for the test. So what are you complaining about lol?

According to the agent, my file was transferred same day to the Calgary office (March 31.). Well, guess what?

Hi Puda,

your eCAS shows still on "In Process" but you called and they said it was transferred on 31st March to Calgary?

Mine has been stuck on "In Process" too and tempted to call today. I tried early last week and I got an agent who just brushed me off and told me to wait 24 months before calling.
