FYI- Applicant's ECAS status changed to "In process" on 7Jun18. However, I did not receive a letter confirming file has been sent to LVO.
 
I have a question.... I got thru to CIC once and asked about updating my passport to current name.... told her I was worried wouldn’t have it back when it was requested. She laughed and said they won’t need my passport since American!?
Yes, America is a visa-exempt country so when you get a Passport request, you will be asked for a photocopy of your passport, not the original. Sometimes you won't even be asked for it, they'll just use what you sent in originally and you'll get a COPR right away.

I did send a photocopy in with the Application...hopefully that will suffice. Thanks!!
