How were you able to check your ecas? Yours was a paper application?

How are you able to access the ECAS?

I used my UCI, birthday and place of birth, but I'm not able to link the application yet, probably until AOR is received, if you have any other questions I can show you screenshots.
I already had an UCI due to previous applications, so if you ever applied for something else you should have one!

Yes it was, paper and inland, check my reply above for more info on ECAS

We did not send a police or medical clearance, we did do some BIO metrics thing with the RCMP and finger prints.

My spouse is from Mexico so maybe the police clearance will come in the next few weeks/months.

My spouse is from Mexico too! Let's hope it all goes smoothly.

Hi! I just submitted my app yesterday, my spouse is also from Mexico, would you mind sharing exactly what you did involving biometrics? We applied inland and CIC told us we did not have to pay the biometrics fee or do anything involving biometrics until service is established in Canada. Thanks!

Hey! I am also from Mexico and I am the principal applicant, Inland.
We didn’t pay the biometric fee either as there Is currently a public policy that dictates that inland applicants are currently excempt from giving biometrics.

Just a question, are you the principal applicant or sponsor?


I'm the sponsor and used my UCI from my own permanent residence application which was approved a while back, as well as my DoB and place of birth but nothing shows up. My spouse (principal applicant) who has not applied for any visas for Canada does not have a UCI yet, so I cannot access ECAS on her behalf.

I thought everyone had to pay the biometric fee... So inland applications (from all nationalities) are excempt from giving biometrics?

Does that also apply to the OWP application? It clearly states multiple times that you’ll have to give biometrics, nothing about inland or outland mentioned...

“
If you’re between 14 and 79 years old, you need to give your fingerprints and photo for ALL permanent resident applications, including:

• family class
• economic class
• persons with refugee, protected person, or asylum status in Canada

You have to give your biometrics and pay the fee, even if you gave your biometrics in the past to support a visitor visa, study or work permit application, or a different permanent resident application.

After you submit your application, we’ll send you a letter that says you need to give your biometrics and where to go. You’ll have up to 30 days to go in person to an official biometrics collection service location.”

You might find this forum more helpful, since inland and outland applications might have a different timeline.
