How long ago did you send it? Are you sure CIC has got the mail?? And did you mail it??
I would check all that staff first. And probably it might make sense to give them a call

If you mean only two days passed since you sent the message, it can be still on its way, and the second request from CIC is just a duplication. But you need to find that out.
I sent them the updated one in first week of October and that they asked by mail. Then they asked for medical and RPRF which we paid on 19th November. Then a week later they send an email asking for a PCC again which went to my junk folder. When I sent them the updated PCC in October I checked that they received it through Canada post express delivery. Now idk what's happening. Instead of asking for PPR, they are sending duplicate emails for a PCC. What should I do??

Did that email request have anything like... "please ignore the message if you have already submitted your PCC"??? Take a closer look!
CIC often sends automated messages to applicants, but it's just more a reminder to react if you have not submitted PCC.

No I checked properly. It doesn't say anything like that. That is why I'm so confused.

That's really weird! I haven't heard anything like that :eek: My suggestion is to try to call them. People work in CIC, and people make mistakes.
It could've made sense to order GMCS notes but for the long 30 days processing time.

Hi Everybody ;) A question for those who got a "Decision Made" Ecas status. How long did you wait for an update from "In Process" to "Decision Made". Does anybody know what "In Process" status means? Looking at the sheet, I can say, only a few guys got it so far. Definitely, it is not about time they start processing ones application...
Hi
I recieved PPR request on 7th Nov, but still the Ecas status was "In process". We send our passports on 7th Nov and CIC recieved them on 10th Nov. My Ecas status changed to "Decision made" on 10th Nov. and today the return tracker got activated. :)

Admin can you please update the spread sheet. thanks.

One Question, If we go for landing at the border.... do we need to carry any photos or any other documents?

This is what exactly you need my friend.

Validating a Confirmation of permanent residence at a border

Once you get your Confirmation of Permanent Residence (IMM 5292 or IMM 5688) from a Canadian visa office and, if necessary, a permanent resident visa in your passport, you must have these documents validated by an immigration officer at a local CIC office in Canada or a port of entry (POE).

If you decide to go to a POE, you must:

Leave and re-enter Canada,
this can be done by entering the U.S.* at a land border, by ferry or by flying out to any other country and back into Canada,
Inform the officer you need to validate your Confirmation of Permanent Residence,
Show the following documents:
passport, travel or identity document (including secure visa counterfoil IMM 1346, if applicable),
Confirmation of Permanent Residence and instructions issued by the Canadian visa office, and
proof of legal status in Canada, such as:
valid work permit, study permit, temporary resident permit or visitor record, or
proof of implied status, such as:
Payment receipt,
copy or printout of paper or online extension application,
proof of mailing or online submission, etc.

Is ECAS status relevant in tracking your post-landing to receiving PR card status ?

I know right :/
Very confused. If I call CIC they would way we don't have access to the Ottawa office so email them. I emailed them but no reply yet. Applied for gcms notes on 4th November but still haven't got them.

You will get them very soon. Maybe this weekend.
The drawback of emailing CIC is that it takes weeks rather than days for them to reply. Anyways, Good Luck.
Keep us posted!
