Hey guys,

I recently submitted my spouse's sponsorship application to the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga. If I'm able to check the ECAS status (saying that a decision has been made), does that indicate the sponsorship has been approved? Or is that an ambiguous statement and too early to conclude that about it. Thanks in advance!

No. You have to wait until they send you a UCI and File Number

it just mean that they have made a decision to see if you are able to sponsor your spouse or not....when you get the letter it will let you know the results

If you mentioned inf your applications that you'd like CIC to contact you by email they would send you an email the moment that decision had been made, if you did not then expect to received a letter in your mail box this week.

Thanks all.

I did provide them with my email, but I guess Ill have to wait till I get the letter.

In any case, does this at least show that the application package was complete?

By all means yes
DM is most likely positive but it could be a negative too. I believe you shoud be receiving the email anytime now.
Wish you good luck

If E-cas mentions DM, you should call the call center.. Note that call center agents cant tell you about the decision.
But can surely let you know how it was communicated to you and you can cross check your email if they have sent via email.

Also check you junk email/spam.
