May I ask, those who have already received letters on your sponsorship approval, is your Client ID# an 8 digit number with no letter before it? Or is there a letter then the 8 digit number?

We're still waiting for sponsorship approval and eCAS is still inaccessible for us, for some reason (we filed on Feb 15). My husband call the Call Centre today and was given a client ID, and they told him to wait another week, but call them back on Monday if nothing has changed on eCAS ???

I can check ecas with the client ID and PR no. Try accessing with the PR no.

I don't have a PR number? We have the client ID for my husband (sponsor) and the receipt number. That's it.

Yes, we paid the RPRF upfront. When we log in with the Receipt number it is still saying "Unable to locate Record".

That's rather annoying. Someone else had said that the officer will stamp the pages approved and give you a timeline to return the application at which time it would be fast tracked and you would avoid the month wait again. I was hoping that would be the case but that would be too easy I guess.

I have already contacted the police in Ireland and requested a new police report, but I guess this will delay the whole process by about 2 months, can't wait to see what the problem is!
