Good afternoon Forum,

I have a question regarding E-CAS, until we receive our confirmation letter from CIC we cannot access E-CAS since we do not have the file number for our case, they also mention using the receipt number but since we payed outland by money draft we do not have the iimm receipt number like those who payed online by credit card. So realistically since we are in Jamaica how long well it take to receive that letter if we just sent off our Sponsorship application.

Thank you in advance for the help, what a journey it is.

Hi Everyone, I am in the same boat except I have not even had an interview or anything. I just ordered CAIPS notes for my file but it's going to be a full year on 10/27/2012. Based on the application timeline, does anyone have any idea when the case might be transferred to LA or be approved ? I know it would only be a guess but I'm frustrated like everyone else and getting very impatient as I thought CIC was better than USCIS but it seems like they are worse.

When I log into ecas all it says is

We received your application for permanent residence on October 27, 2011.

Hello cocomtl,

I did not receive any confirmation letter from CPC, they only emailed me...guess what it landed in my junk mail folder...until my friend (applied 2 months after me) told me they got their confirmation by email.

I suggest you also check your spam/junk mail folder too.

Good Luck!!

You and husband will have different UCI numbers, you get yours when you get AOR1 or sponsorship approval, and your spouse gets their own UCI when the VO it is transferred to sends them AOR2. BTW, that receipt number thing is hit and miss, miss more than anything. I have only heard of a few people being able to log into ecas with it.
